Hi
Is the word comely used only with females?
She is a handsome, comely child.
How would you find this sentence as a native speaker?
He was a young, comely manager in that big company.
Thanks,
Tom
Comely is so seldom used today, I would describe it as archaic. I see it in literature written 100 or more years ago.
