leftie
Not right-handed person
Leftie is an informal term for a left-handed person: Any other lefties at this table need to switch seats?
It also refers, often dismissively, to someone with left-wing political views: The radio host railed against coastal lefties.
The political sense carries a mildly disparaging tone when used by opponents.
Also spelled lefty.
