/'chi-ling/
FIL: Isang estado ng pagpapahinga, pagrerelaks, o paglilibang nang walang partikular na ginagawa.
EN: relaxing, hanging out
This is the national pastime of the Filipino tito. It's when you're just... there. Maybe on a monobloc chair, with a beer, staring into the middle distance. It's not doing 'nothing', it's actively 'chilling'. It's a low-energy state of contentment, the opposite of 'grind culture'.
From English 'chilling'.
ROOT MEANING: chill, relaxed, calm
Used in informal Taglish. Often used in a verb-like phrase 'nag-chi-chilling'.
