Crawful

/ˈkrɔːfʊl/ adjective

Definition

Full of or containing crawfish; also potentially meaning disgustingly full or nauseating (archaic).

Kelly Says

The suffix '-ful' is one of English's oldest ways of making adjectives—'handful,' 'awful,' and 'crawful' all work the same way, showing the consistency of English word-building patterns.
