one-handedness
Using one hand
One-handedness is the state of having or using only one hand.
The term may describe a physical condition—someone born with one hand or who has lost one—or a style of doing something: the one-handedness of his typing, a phone designed for one-handedness.
In sports, it often refers to technique: a player's one-handedness on backhand shots.
