EN: gloominess, overcast state
That gray, gloomy vibe right before a heavy rain, when the sky looks like it's about to have a major "hugot" moment. It's the perfect weather for staying in, drinking coffee, and listening to sad OPM songs. It can also describe a somber mood, like the atmosphere in an office after a round of layoffs.
From circumfix `ka- -an` + `kulimlim` (overcast, gloomy). The circumfix creates a noun denoting the state or quality of being gloomy.
ROOT MEANING: overcast, gloomy, dim
Refers to the dimness caused by overcast skies, but can also be used metaphorically to describe a sad or somber atmosphere.
