EN: inconsolable
This is the feeling when your crush leaves you on 'seen' for the third time today. Or when your GrabFood order gets cancelled after an hour of waiting. No amount of K-drama or milk tea can fix it. You're just... di-maaliw-aliw.
From 'di-' (not) + 'ma-' (ability prefix) + reduplication of 'aliw' (comfort, entertainment).
Often used to describe deep sadness, grief, or inconsolable crying.
