Friends

I saw this question in Chapter 29 Oxford College online drills

Alterā manū scrībis? Which hand do you write with?

I imagine the answer would be

Dextrā manū scrībo, or Sinistrā manū scrībo.

But how would I say I am right handed, or left handed?
Thanks Jim (I’m left handed of course, or I wouldn’t be interested LOL)

A left-handed man is scaeva

Hence the cognomen for Gaius Mucius Scaevola

Thank you
I guess they didn’t need a word for right-handed :slight_smile:
