"Hottie" is a new slang word in English (probably a California reinvention) which can apply to an attractive looking member of either sex. It is used by younger people... I would say even under 35. 'Chick' and 'babe' have been around a long time and can probably be traced back indirectly to the original Indo-European (sometimes called Indo-Germanic). For example, Spanish has chica and Albanian has Çikë both meaning "girl". Italian has bambino meaning "baby" or "doll," Greek has byba "baby girl" etc.

Big-boned.

'Obese', 'plump', 'chubby' and 'heavy-set' are kind or relatively kind words to describe a woman who is fat in English. In Spanish, gordita (chubby) is considered more polite way to describe a fat woman than just plain gorda (fat).
|
In Italian, the endearing way to refer to a plump girl is "cicciona" (chee-CHO-na). "Grassa" can refer to fat women as well, but I don't consider it as nice.
Incidentally, I've been hearing that bigger boned girls like to refer to themselves as "thick" (US). I'm not sure if I'm entirely correct about this though.

|
I can't say I've ever heard that one.
|
|
Polite word for fat = rotund
|
|
It's hard to keep up with the euphemism that's currently preferred, but 'big' is sometimes used for 'fat'.
|
In russian the fat woman is called just a one word - KOROVA thats it. So now u know it and feel free to call that fat women in Russia and you'll get a kind respond.
Drunkie dicknose keep it real.

|
or you might choose the more polite variant this one goes better with the fat woman you see for the 1st time call this beuty - KOBIULA PEDAL'NAYA

The verb "hit" is very useful in American English.Here it is:
I'm going to hit the bed in five minutes.
It's time for us to hit the road.

Isn't "fugly" used to describe unpleasant looking people everywhere in the US?
