medical condition of too much fat
A health problem where someone has too much body fat, so much that it can hurt their health.
استعمال کا انداز:
[someone] has obesity
عام غلطی:
Learners often confuse "obesity" (a medical condition) with "overweight" (a broader, less technical term). "Obesity" is uncountable, so we do not say *"an obesity" or "many obesities"; instead, say "the problem of obesity" or "cases of obesity". Another mistake is using "obesity" as an adjective, e.g. *"obesity people"; the correct adjective is "obese", as in "obese people".
