adjective
Fond of or good at games and exercise, or styled in a lively, athletic way.
Sporty can describe a person who plays a lot of games, but it is just as often used for things that seem built for speed or casual elegance. A sporty car is small and quick, and a sporty jacket is trim and relaxed rather than formal. In old usage it could also mean showy, even a little dashing, which is why the word still carries a hint of flair.
