FIL: Ang kalagayan ng dagat kung saan ang tubig ay nasa pinakamababang antas nito; ang kabaligtaran ng taog o high tide.
EN: low tide
The opposite of high tide. This is when the sea pulls back and you can walk farther out on the beach, discovering starfish, sea shells, and sometimes, someone's lost tsinelas. Perfect time for "pangangapa" or looking for shellfish.
Pronunciation is key to distinguish this from "kati" (itch). Here, the stress is on the first syllable: /KA-ti/. The opposite is "taog" or "lakas-tubig".
