EN: happiness, joy, bliss
This is the goal, the prize, the ultimate 'sana all'. It's that feeling you get when your Shopee order arrives, your crush replies, and it's a long weekend. It's not just a fleeting 'haha', but the deep, warm feeling of 'I'm good'. The opposite of Monday mornings.
From 'ka-' + 'ligaya' (joy) + '-han', forming an abstract noun meaning 'the state of being happy'.
A very common and fundamental word for the concept of happiness.
