What does ''dashy'' mean? If someone says you look dashy, is it a compliment or an insult? what is that?

[The-Dude-Next-Door]

British people say this mostly. They say "dashing" not "dashy."

I means you look good, or stylish, or elegant. It means you have good taste in clothing.

[Distant]

Do you mean "dashing"? Or do you suspect that (s)he meant "dashing"? In that case, it means "Stylish or fashionable". As for "Dashy", I have no clue.

dashy means handsome, goodlooking, stunning ect... thye use it a lot in england

[JohnScofield]

Dashing maybe but not dashy. OR maybe I am just not dashy, so I never hear it... Hmmm

[caligirl3]

i think you say he is dashy and he looks dashing in that suit, so you use both but I might be wrong I'm not British I have only been there twice and watch bbc from time to time

[Cuddle_Muffin]

Dashy or dashing means stunning or beautifully dressed.

[JohnWhilkins]

Compliment. If you look "dashing" then you look "stunning".

[dan123z4]

If they were English and meant dashing it means beautiful

[TheUglyOne]

New one on me haha. I would guessed flashy, or maybe cool and stylish.

If you mean Dashing, it's used frequently in England to say you look very good.
