1. 1

    Stout has a few uses. For a person's body, it means a bit heavy or thick, but strong-looking — it is a gentler, more polite way to say 'fat', often used for older men. For things, stout means strongly and built, so it will not break easily — 'stout shoes', 'a stout stick'. Stout can also describe someone's character — brave and firm, not giving up ('stout resistance'). And finally, 'a stout' is also the name of a dark, heavy type of beer (Guinness is the most famous stout).

    ① (指人)矮胖結實的、粗壯的 ② (指物)堅固厚實的、耐用的 ③ 堅定的、勇敢的 ④ 一種黑啤酒(司陶特啤酒)
