sized

Adjusted to fit

Sized describes something according to its dimensions or magnitude.

It usually appears with a modifier: a medium-sized dog, bite-sized pieces, a good-sized crowd.

The word indicates that something has been made or sorted to a particular size: The lumber was sized and ready for shipping.

In a different sense, sized means treated with size—a glutinous substance used to seal or stiffen surfaces like paper or fabric.
