EN: tear-jerking, causing one to cry
The ending of 'Heneral Luna' or 'Goyo'. That viral Jollibee commercial. Or when you see your phone bill after using data roaming. It's anything that hits you right in the feels and makes you reach for the tissue, whether from sadness or from seeing your bank account.
From `naka-` (causative prefix) + reduplication of the first vowel `i-` + `iyak` (cry).
Describes something that evokes a strong emotional response, leading to tears. Can be from sadness, happiness, or being touched.
