Etymology
The word tingly comes from the verb tingle, which you can remember as a small 'ting' feeling, and the ending -y makes it mean 'having' that feeling. A helpful way to remember it is to imagine a tiny 'ting' or prick running through your skin, which is why tingly describes a slight, pleasant prickling or stinging feeling.
