Coy, pronounced koi, is an adjective that can mean either; (1) affectedly shy and modest. [Sara's new boyfriend seems quite coy.] (2) unwilling to give information. [The police were coy when it came to who the suspects were.]
An example of using coy in a sentence would be, 'The girl was being coy with her boyfriend." Coy means to be shy or modest in a flirtatious way.
