Etymology: "Lardier" is the comparative of "lardy," so it means more heavy with fat, or more rotund from rich eating. "Lardy" is built from "lard" plus the suffix "-y," which in Old English appeared as "-ig" and gave the sense of having a certain quality or being full of something. "Lard" itself came into English from Old French, which took it from Latin "lardum," meaning the fat of bacon.
