EN: imagination; contemplation; reflection
This is your mind's own little cinema. It's where you daydream about winning the lottery, practice a tough conversation in your head, or just zone out during a boring meeting. It's the internal monologue, the "what if" scenarios, the deep thoughts you have while staring at the ceiling at 3 AM.
From a reduplication of 'dili', an archaic word for 'mind' or 'thought'.
Often used in the phrase 'sa aking dili-dili' (in my imagination/mind). A very literary and formal word.
