The term "bare-ankled" refers to the state of having one's ankles uncovered. Depending on the context, you may use different synonyms to describe this condition. For instance, if you want to describe someone's fashion style, you can use the phrase "ankle-baring" or "ankle-exposing." Alternatively, if you're talking about a specific outfit, you can use the term "ankle-grazing" to indicate that the garment in question ends just above or below the ankle. On the other hand, if you're describing someone's physical appearance, you can use "skinny-ankled" or "slender-ankled" to indicate that the person has thin and delicate ankles.
