Definition
Randy means sexually excited or eager for sex. It is an informal word and is often used jokingly, especially in British English.
Usage & Nuances
Usually describes people or animals, not formal situations. Common in British English; in American English it sounds less common and a bit old-fashioned or comic. Be careful: it is direct and sexual, so it may sound rude in serious contexts.
