뜻
Describing someone's body type.
문화적 배경
Historically, being 'wefram' was a sign of surviving the lean seasons and having wealth. Western beauty standards are making 'wefram' a less desirable trait among the youth. A 'wefram' bride was often seen as a sign that her family was prosperous and could provide for her. During fasting seasons (like Lent), being 'wefram' is seen as a challenge since the diet is strictly vegan.
Use with 'ዬ'
Adding 'ye' (Weframye) makes it sound like a nickname for a friend.
Be Careful
Don't say this to a woman you don't know well; it's considered rude.
