Handier

/ˈhændiər/ adjective

Definition

More convenient, useful, or easier to handle or use than something else.

Etymology

Comparative form of 'handy,' from Old English 'hændig' meaning 'skillful with the hands,' which evolved to mean both 'skillful' and 'conveniently located or sized.'

Kelly Says

The word 'handier' reveals that English speakers grouped two different ideas—physical skill AND convenience—into one word because both relate to quick, easy use with your hands, showing how our minds connect ideas.
