Bronzy

/ˈbrɑnzi/ adjective

Definition

Having the color, appearance, or quality of bronze; resembling bronze in color or texture.

Etymology

From 'bronze' plus the adjectival suffix -y, which turns nouns into adjectives describing a quality. This common pattern in English creates adjectives from nouns easily.

Kelly Says

The human body can develop a 'bronzy' glow from the mineral deposits that form in the skin during certain diseases, which is why doctors look for unusual bronze skin tone as a diagnostic clue.
