"-wise" is a suffix (in this case used informally) which when added to nouns means "with reference to or as far as something is concerned."

Example: (1) It was a poor show, talent-wise (=speaking of talent); (2) My friend's house is awesome, size-wise (=referring to the big house).

Size Wise

2016-12-17 16:31:16 · answer #2 · answered by tedesco 4 · 0 0

size-wise consists of size, and -wise (a suffix)

size-wise is basically saying you are using a word to only describe his size.

You are big, size-wise. You are saying he is big in size
You are big, height-wise. You are saying he is tall. (Not the best example, but you should be able to
understand it)

size wise means that you are talking about size.
Example would be "You are big... size-wise... o crap i shouldnt have said that" lol that was all i can think of. This means the person I am talking about is big in size.

Sizewise

i think it's about size acceptance. it's about demanding respect for yourself at any size and taking control of your life and your health. It's about not letting a biased society or your size keep you from living your life fully - right now - at any weight.

It refers to if something is the correct size. You make that assumption by looking at it.
Examples:
Sizewise, it looks about right. (The tablecloth should fit the table.)
Sizewise, it should fit. (The sweater should fit Grandma.)

It depends on the context. By itself it could mean a pleathora of things.
