Etymology[edit]

Is this not directly from Latin, perhaps Late or Medieval Latin, rather than ambi- +‎ dexter +‎ -ous? Mglovesfun (talk) 15:51, 9 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

in particular, able to write with both hands[edit]

I don't think so. It can mean this but not particularly this. Unless there's evidence which says it is. Mglovesfun (talk) 11:25, 10 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
