Inclined to brag; boastful or characterized by bragging.
Formed from the verb 'brag' plus the adjectival suffix '-y,' which converts nouns and verbs into adjectives (as in 'rainy' from 'rain,' 'sleepy' from 'sleep'). The '-y' suffix has been used for adjective formation since Old English and remains one of the most productive suffixes in modern English.
