    Note

    A plural that hides its spelling: handie simply takes -s, and the result is identical to the plural of handy, so a written handies never shows which form the writer chose. Handie is only a variant spelling of handy and carries its "hand" and "hand job" meanings. The second is vulgar slang, which is worth remembering before using the word casually.
