I was just curious how you will transalte them:
inzestrare= psyhical/mentaly capacity of someone (skillness?); having
a skill for something
inzestrat= skilled, having something

These derivatives shows that they derive from something which you
possed. A derivation in the such meaning from Latin "dextera" it
seems to me too blind.
