FIL: Nagtataglay ng kulay na bahagyang asul o may pagkakahawig sa kulay asul.
EN: bluish
That color of the sky right before it gets completely dark. Or the color of your lips after swimming in a cold pool for too long. It's not fully blue, just... blue-ish. It's the 'almost there' of the color blue. A very poetic and slightly uncommon word.
From 'ma-' (adjective prefix) + Spanish 'azul' (blue).
ROOT MEANING: blue
A more literary or formal way to say 'bluish'. 'Medyo asul' is more common in everyday speech.
