EN: to be drowsy, to be half-asleep
That feeling when your alarm goes off for your 6 AM shift but your soul is still in bed. You're physically up, but your brain is still buffering. You're walking around, eyes half-closed, bumping into things. That's you, 'pumungas-pungas'.
It's a state of being, describing the groggy, disoriented moments after waking up. The repetition of 'pungas' emphasizes the lingering sleepiness.
