Pang-uri
Isang kalagayan o lugar na may kakulangan o kawalan ng suplay ng tubig.
/pag-ti-WAS/
FIL: Ang unti-unting pagbaba o paghupa ng isang bagay na mataas o matindi, tulad ng baha, lagnat, o galit.
EN: subsiding; waning
That feeling of relief when the floodwaters finally start going down after a typhoon, or when your fever breaks after being sick. It's the moment the drama starts to fade. Your anger after a fight begins to cool down, or the intense 'kilig' from seeing your crush starts to become manageable again. It's the slow return to normal.
Often used for natural phenomena like floods or medical conditions like fever. Can also be used metaphorically for emotions.
