Showy = show + y — सब कुछ दिखावे के लिए। चमकदार cover वाली किताब सोचिए जिसके अंदर कुछ ख़ास नहीं। Showy यानी भड़कीला, दिखावटी; plain और modest इसके उल्टे।

SHOWY is 'show + y': everything is for show. Picture a book with a glittering cover and very little inside. Something showy attracts attention in a flashy way; plain and modest are its opposites.
