Endomorph---stocky build
Ectomorph---tall long
Mesomorph---huskey muscular
Practically synonim to Kretschtmer's typology, but without psychological implications. (outdated anyway)
But Hydra, what do you think of this definition coming from Encarta:
The whole thing:
Mesomorph : a husky muscular body or somebody who has such a body.
The 'or' in this sentence makes me chuckle. I do not understand the 'or 'in this phrase. It's like someone is hiding
such a body in a closet or something.
What about this sentence ? Don't you think it is a weird definition?
