Oliver: 这个词儿和手有关， hand. Handy 在手这个字的后边多了一个字母Y。
Helen: Often people talk about someone who is handy with something. That means this person is good at doing something, for example fixing cars.

Helen: Yes, my friend Keith likes cars very much and he’s good at fix problems in them, so he’s very handy with cars.
