EN: grumpiness, crankiness
This is your boss on a Monday morning before coffee. It's your partner when they're 'hangry.' It's the *tindera* who looks at you like you're an inconvenience. *Sungit* is that aura of unapproachability and general grumpiness. If someone asks, 'May dalaw ka ba?' you're probably being *masungit*.
Can be used as a noun ('ang sungit mo' - your grumpiness) or as an adjective ('masungit ka' - you are grumpy). The root word itself is often used as an exclamation or description.
