Vocabulary Showcase: “Fat”
Sometimes we need to describe a person or animal that is “fat”, but this is not a polite way to say it. It is important to think about the feelings of the person we describe. Let’s look at different ways to describe large people and animals, and how they are used:
Medical: Obese, Overweight
Polite / friendly: Full-figured, Curvy (for women)
Neutral: Large, Heavy set,
Impolite: Tubby, Chunky, Plump, Chubby, Fat
Old fashioned: Stout, Portly
