Hey there! So, "boney" is a word that we use to describe something that has a lot of bones or is very thin and has a lot of bones sticking out. You know, like when you see a skeleton, it's all boney! But we can also use it to describe someone who is really skinny or has very little flesh on their body. So, if someone says "You're looking a little boney today," they might be saying that you look really thin or that your bones are sticking out a little bit. It's kind of like when you eat a piece of chicken and you see all the bones, that's boney too! Does that make sense? Let me know if you have any more questions about it!
