FIL: Ang pag-upo ng inahing manok sa mga itlog upang mapisa; o ang pagdidilim ng kalangitan bilang tanda ng pag-ulan.
EN: to brood (like a hen); to darken (sky)
This word has two vibes. Vibe 1: Mother Hen mode. It’s what a chicken does to hatch her eggs, sitting on them with intense focus. Vibe 2: The sky's pre-drama phase. Before a major downpour, when the clouds go from fluffy white to a threatening shade of grey, the sky is 'lumilimlim'. It's nature's way of saying, 'You're about to get wet. Good luck.'
Actor-focus verb, completed aspect (past tense). Can refer to incubation or the darkening of the sky/atmosphere.
