Etymology
The word 'corpulent' originated from the Latin word 'corpus,' meaning body. Over time, it evolved to describe someone with a large or bulky body, often associated with being overweight or obese. The term has been used in English language literature for centuries to depict characters with a heavy or excessive build.
