I would like to know which of these two options would be more appropriate to fill in the blank

plein=full
beaucoup=much, a lot, many
if you were to say:
Le dictionnaire est plein d'images. ( the dictionary is full of images)
Le dictionnaire a beaucoup d'images. (the dictionary has many images.)
the use depends of the verb used. i.e. être ou avoir

the term "plein" is more use when you're talking about a liquid quantity. Like, for example: le verre est plein. (the glass is full)
When your talking about something you can count, you will usually use the term "beaucoup".: il y a beaucoup de gens ici
(there's a lot of people here)
Also, an anglicism for "plein" is actually full...

beaucoup is more formal. Use it instead of plein.

"le dicitonnaire a baeucoup d'images", cause there isn't the the "to be" verb....there's "to have"
