EN: unreachable, unattainable
Like your crush who doesn't know you exist. Or the top shelf at the grocery store where they put the good imported stuff. It's that goal, person, or thing that's just out of reach, making you feel like a T-Rex trying to make a bed.
Combination of 'di' (not) and 'maabot' (can be reached).
Can be used literally for physical distance or figuratively for goals, dreams, or social status.
