EN: extreme poverty, destitution
This is a very deep Tagalog word for 'sobrang hirap.' Level 99 poverty. Yung tipong hindi na lang 'isang kahig, isang tuka,' kundi wala nang matuka. It's a word you'd find in classic literature or a very serious documentary.
From ka- + dayukdok + -an. 'Dayukdok' means extreme hunger or poverty.
A very formal and somewhat archaic word. Not used in casual conversation. `Kahirapan` is the common term.
