*A '''left-hander''' is a person who is more skillful with the left hand than with the right. A left-hander will probably (but is not required to) use the left hand for tasks such as personal care, cooking, and so on.

* Writing with right hand alone ''does not'' necessarily indicate one's right-handedness. The world is right-handed-dominant, and many natural born left-handers were forced to write with their right hand. Consequently, a lot of born left-handers may write with their right hand but use the left for everything else. Further, some people write and draw left-handed, but have learned to use the right hand for other skilled tasks in order to accomodate tools designed for right-hand use.
