Gezelligkhuh-zell-ikh

adj. Describes much more than just coziness, a positive warm emotion or feeling rather than just something physical - and connotes time spent with loved ones, togetherness. Ask any Dutch person and they will tell you about gezellig. It is something that embodies their warm, welcoming culture, and encompasses all of those things that make you cozy on the inside, like family, good conversations, and hugs.
