EN: brilliance, intensity (of color), vividness
This is the 'in your face' quality of a neon sign, the color of a ripe mango, or your friend's highlighter-yellow crocs. It's the visual equivalent of shouting. When a color is so bright it almost hurts your eyes but you can't look away, that's **katingkaran**.
From ka- (quality of) + tingkad (vividness, intensity of color).
Almost exclusively used to describe the intensity or vividness of colors.
