FIL: Isang taong may katabaan at kasabay na mababa ang taas.
EN: short and stout, roly-poly
The human version of a corgi or a 'monay' bread. It's not just fat, it's fat packed into a compact frame. Often used playfully to describe a certain body type, but like 'mataba', it can still be offensive.
A compound adjective from "mataba" (fat) and "pandak" (short).
A very specific and often unflattering descriptor. Use with caution.
