EN: stickiness, adhesion
That feeling on your hands after eating with them (kamayan) and you touched something sweet like leche flan. It's the state of being 'malagkit'. Also, the way chismis spreads and sticks to someone's reputation? That's a different kind of paninikit.
From "dikit" (to stick, adhere). The prefix "paN-" causes the initial /d/ of the root to assimilate to /n/.
