基本解释

adj. 圆胖的，丰满的

chubby 圆胖的

来自chub, 白鲑。

chubby (adj.): 1610s, literally "resembling a chub," from chub, the short, thick type of fish + -y (2). Perhaps influenced by Old Norse kumba "log," kumben "stumpy."
ME chubbe ... was also used of a "lazy, spiritless fellow; a rustic, simpleton; dolt, fool" (1558), whilst Bailey has "Chub, a Jolt-head, a great-headed, full-cheeked Fellow," a description reminiscent of that of the chevin, another name for the chub ... Thus the nickname may have meant either "short and thick, dumpy like a chub," or "of the nature of a chub, dull and clownish." ["Dictionary of English Surnames"]

3. At first I thought he was rather ordinary looking, a little chubby, not my type.: 刚开始我认为他相貌很普通，有点胖乎乎的，并非我喜欢的类型。
