What does ROTUND mean in Scrabble?
adjective
Round and plump in shape, especially describing a person's figure.
Rotund most often describes a person or object with a full, rounded outline, and it carries a slightly gentler tone than plain fat, closer to portly or well-fed. The word can also describe a voice or style of speech that is full, rich, and rolling rather than thin, so a rotund manner of speaking means one that sounds grand and sonorous. Both senses trace back to the same Latin root meaning wheel-shaped, which is also the source of rotunda, the round domed building.
