One adjective does thick and fat, and the context settles which. Keep apart from : a plank is through its depth and across its face. The opposite is a, which covers thin and slim alike, and o is thickness as a measurement. Applied to a person it is as blunt in Esperanto as it is in English, and no gentler for being an international language, so it is not a compliment and there is no polite dodge built into the root.
