what is a southpaw ?

[JIP]

Hi canny....southpaw means left handed..a term usually used in boxing when you punch with your left hand.

ah I see,,, I am not one of them then,,,, I am right handed - can deal a mean left hook tho'

I use both hands and am ambidextrous if I have spelt it right.
It is really weird as my husband and daughter left handed and my Son right handed. My Dad also left handed.

Alot of southpaws in our family amongst the children.

[canny]

[JIP]

[IChThUS]

...pssst. amphidextrous

AMBIDEXTROUS according to my dictionary JIP

Nothing between Amphictyony and Amphigamous

[JIP]

Yes you are right. I didn't check up a dictionary.
but amphidextrous had been used widely colloquially I guess.
It derives from amphibians, living in both water &
land and hence used in this context-using both hands.
I stand corrected Ichy. Thanks
