corpore amplo: opimus (fat, from plenty and good-living; πιμελής): obesus (fat and corpulent in a bad sense, as connected with unwieldiness; opposed to gracilis): corpulentus (in a good sense, as implying portliness). ☞ Corpulentus is used by Plaut., Ep., 1, 1, 8; and by Quint., Col., and Plin., It seems, therefore, hypercritical to reject it: habitus (rare; pre-classical, Plaut., Ep., 1, 1, 8: corpulentior videre atque habitior). To be corpulent, corpore esse amplo or obeso; nitere (Phaedrus): to grow corpulent, corpus facere: pinguescere: on what food have you grown so corpulent? quo cibo fecisti tantum corporis? (Phaedrus).
