Hassocky

/ˈhæsəki/ adjective

Definition

Resembling or characteristic of a hassock; full of tufts or clumps of vegetation, or cushion-like.

Etymology

Formed from 'hassock' with the adjectival suffix -y, creating an adjective that describes something with hassock-like qualities.

Kelly Says

Hassocky perfectly demonstrates how English speakers can turn almost any noun into an adjective by adding -y—a field can become 'hassocky' (full of grass tufts), and this creative process happens millions of times daily in natural speech, even if most -y adjectives never make it into dictionaries.
