Resembling or consisting of heaps; piled up or characterized by multiple piles.
From 'heap' (Old English 'hēap') plus '-y', a productive suffix that converts nouns into adjectives meaning 'full of' or 'having the quality of'.
The '-y' suffix is so productive that speakers can create adjectives on the fly—'heapy' follows the same pattern as 'sleepy,' 'grumpy,' and 'rainy'—but not all possible '-y' words catch on; 'heapy' remains informal and colloquial because we usually just say 'piled' or 'lumpy' instead!
