Beautiful or elegantly formed; having pleasing shape or appearance (archaic or poetic).
From Latin formosus, 'beautiful, well-formed,' from forma, 'shape.' The word directly borrowed classical Latin's aesthetic vocabulary about physical form.
Formose is nearly extinct English, but it's the actual Latin ancestor of the place-name Formosa—Portuguese colonizers named the island using this ancient word meaning 'beautiful,' and language historians can trace aesthetic judgments through centuries of naming.
