What does درشت mean when referring to ones physical appearance?
Hello,
I am trying to translate this Persian sentence to English:
بابام قدش بلنده، درشته، موهاش سیاهه
A native speaker said this, and I can't exactly understand the meaning of the word درشت /dorosht/ here.
1) does the word درشت refer to قد or to بابا
2) what exactly does درشت mean here?
Thank you in advance!

Hi I'm a native farsi speaker
درشتmeans a little bit larger
You can't say درشتis big
It uses basically in comparison
Font of this book is درشت ترthan that book

Hello,
It actually means "big" or "huge" when addressing someone's physique. A close equivalent in English would be "burly".
