FIL: Mawalan ng pakiramdam sa isang bahagi ng katawan, karaniwang dahil sa pagkaipit ng daloy ng dugo, na nagreresulta sa pakiramdam na parang tinutusok ng karayom.
EN: to feel numb, to have pins and needles
That "TV static" feeling in your arm after sleeping on it wrong, or in your legs after sitting on the floor for too long during a meeting. Your limb is technically still there, but it has entered the void and is now sending you angry, tingly signals. You try to shake it back to life, looking like you're doing a weird dance.
From "mang-" + "ngimay" (numbness).
Often used interchangeably with 'manhid', but 'ngimay' specifically refers to the tingling, "pins and needles" sensation (paresthesia) as feeling returns, while 'manhid' can be pure numbness or emotional numbness.
