"bodbod" meaning in Maltese

See bodbod in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ˈbɔd.bɔt/ Forms: bdabad [plural]
Rhymes: -ɔdbɔt Etymology: Perhaps from a dialectal Arabic word for “stout, corpulent”. Compare Tunisian Arabic مبطبط (mbaṭbaṭ, “fat, fatso”). In line with this, Vassalli gives the form botbot (plural btabet). The similarity with Portuguese bode (“billygoat”) is suggestive, but the word seems to be restricted to the western half of Iberia and its origin is also unknown.
