A Tunisian word from the area around Nabeul. Used to describe a big person.كلمة التونسية من المنطقة المحيطة نابل . يستخدم لوصف شخص كبير

This word matches how I often think of myself. It’s not an insult, but it’s also not not an insult. Kinda like how large people are sometimes only helpful because of their size and awkward when it’s not helpful. It’s fun to be big when big people are needed for big things, like moving something heavy or painting a ceiling, less so at a theater or on a plane.
