Almondy

/ˈɑːməndɪ/ adjective

Definition

Tasting of, containing, or having qualities resembling almonds, or shaped like almonds.

Etymology

Almond plus the English diminutive/descriptive suffix -y, creating an adjective form. This suffix builds adjectives from nouns to mean 'having the qualities of' or 'somewhat like.'

Kelly Says

Adding -y to food names is how English eaters describe flavors—'almondy' sits alongside 'peachy,' 'nutty,' and 'fruity' as a direct sensory descriptor that speakers instinctively understand!
