More literally, 'ambidextrous' doesn't mean 'good with both hands'; it means 'having two right hands'. Ergo, 'ambisinister' means 'having two left hands'. Of course, the implication for much of history has been that right-handedness meant more ability with the hands, and left-handedness meant less. I'm 65yo, and when we kids were starting school in the early 60s, I remember it was a big deal that my slightly older brother (1 year older)was allowed to write with his left hand. Yes, writing with the left hand was still not allowed into the mid-1900s. Of course, we were in Catholic school, which probably held on to that rule longer than the rest of the world, because that they'd spent almost 2,000 years scaring their disciples into the belief that left-handedness was a sign of the devil woooooooooo. (scary woo there).
