Corpulence
Corpulence 是一个正式的名词。它比 obesity (肥胖症) 更正式，通常用来形容一个人的体型非常硕大。
- His corpulence made it difficult for him to walk long distances. (他的肥胖使他难以长距离行走。)
- In the past, corpulence was often seen as a sign of wealth. (在过去，肥胖常被视为财富的象征。)
- He struggled with his corpulence throughout his adult life. (他在整个成年生活中都在与肥胖作斗争。)
- 词根：
-corp-(身体，如 corpse, corporation, corporal) - 后缀：
-ulence(表示大量的状态) - 含义：身体太重。
联想 corporation (公司)。大公司通常都很臃肿，就像一个 corpulence (肥胖) 的人。或者记：corp (身子) + u (你) + lence (大量的)。
Despite his corpulence, the king was known for his agility on the dance floor. (尽管体态肥胖，国王却以在舞池中的敏捷而闻名。)
