heavyish

Moderately hard to lift

Somewhat heavy; moderately weighty.

The -ish suffix softens the claim, suggesting something approaches heaviness without fully reaching it: The package was heavyish—maybe ten pounds.

Can describe physical weight or figurative burden: a heavyish workload, heavyish reading.
