发帖数: 12 | 1 Co-worked gave me a wierd look when I say that. Is it the type of English
never used in daily conversation? The meaning looks fine according to
Merriam-Webster online dictionary:
well–rounded: fully or broadly developed: as a: having a broad educational
background b: comprehensive
BTW, my co-worker said "I would not talk if I were you" after the wierd look
. I know he was kind of joking but was still hurt a lit |

good way.
Unless ur co-worker has something goofy on his mind, your sentence is
completely fine. Don't worry about what he/she says.
educational
comprehensive
look

可能没有关系。
well-rounded形容人的话，指fully-developed body，
通常指strong, attractive，或者指女的发育好。。。
形容全面的时候，一般加别的词，比如 well-rounded education,
experience etc., 不说you are well-rounded。 |

co-worker didn't think I meant he was attractive...
