In case you didn’t realize, it was International Left Handed Day yesterday. Yes, there is a day to celebrate almost anything and everything!
Despite left-handed people now being thought of as highly intelligent, the English word left comes from the Old English lyft, meaning idle, weak or useless. Famous left-handers, including Prince William, former US President Barack Obama and Greek philosopher Aristotle.
