Everyone knows the left hand is the sinister one...

In Spanish the right and left are called diestra (dexterous) and siniestra (sinister) respectively.

I know them as derecha e izquierda for the directions and I'm bilingual in spanish.

Diestro is right handed but for left handed I hear zurdo more. I don't think I've ever heard someone use siniestro.
