superl.
Stoutest.] [D. stout bold (or OF. estout bold,
proud, of Teutonic origin); akin to AS. stolt, G. stolz, and
perh. to E. stilt.]

[1913 Webster]
Syn:
Stout,
Corpulent,
Portly.
Usage: Corpulent has reference simply to a superabundance or
excess of flesh. Portly implies a kind of stoutness or
corpulence which gives a dignified or imposing
appearance. Stout, in our early writers (as in the
English Bible), was used chiefly or wholly in the
sense of strong or bold; as, a stout champion; a stout
heart; a stout resistance, etc. At a later period it
was used for thickset or bulky, and more recently,
especially in England, the idea has been carried still
further, so that Taylor says in his Synonyms:
“The
stout man has the proportions of an ox; he is
corpulent, fat, and fleshy in relation to his size.”
In America, stout is still commonly used in the
original sense of strong as, a stout boy; a stout
pole.
