  1. 1

    A hippo is a : a huge, heavy animal that lives in rivers in Africa, with a wide mouth, short legs, and thick skin. Hippo is the short, friendly name people use in talk, in children's books, and at the zoo; is the full one. You say a hippo, two hippos. Though actually, a hippo is not gentle just because it looks round and slow — in the water it can be very dangerous. The word stays with the animal; we do not stretch it much. Informal, but everyone understands it.
