Sort of. The terms 'sinister' and 'dexter' are used in heraldy, and are from the Latin 'sinistra' and 'dextra' (left and right - hence 'ambidextrous', meaning, more or less, 'two right hands'). It's a bit arse-about-tits in heraldry due to the left and right being decided from behind the shield, rather than the front of it, due mainly to the fact that the terms were used in shield training before heraldry existed.

Wait, now I'm confused.
