/sub-li-mi-DAD/
FIL: Ang katangian ng pagiging dakila, maringal, o kahanga-hanga na nagdudulot ng matinding pagkamangha o paggalang.
EN: sublimity, grandeur
This is a very deep, very rare word. It's the feeling you get when you see a perfect Mayon Volcano cone, or when you finally understand a Jose Rizal novel. It's that "wow, ang galing/ganda, naiiyak ako" feeling, but make it intellectual. It's the grandeur of an idea or a view that's almost spiritual.
From Spanish 'sublimidad'.
Extremely formal and literary. You're more likely to encounter this in old books or academic papers than in conversation.
