Semantic Domain
Body conditions; Bodily sensations; Health and illness

Morphology
binined = -in- + bined
An inflected form describing the experienced or resulting state of becoming bined.

Notes
Bined is a Boie’nen bodily-sensation category rather than an exact medical diagnosis. Depending on the particular sensation, English medical descriptions may include paresthesia for tingling or pins and needles and numbness for reduced sensation. The word may also include a heavy, fatigued ache comparable to Filipino ngalay; therefore, paresthesia alone is too narrow as its definition.

A limb that has “fallen asleep” commonly involves temporary pressure on a nerve. It should not automatically be explained as restricted blood circulation.

Semantic distinction

bined — numb, tingling, heavy, or fatigued sensation; no involuntary locking of the muscle
kalambri — sudden, painful involuntary tightening of a muscle
ex-ex — broader muscular fatigue, aching, numbness, or bodily malaise, especially following exertion or from a pathological cause

The present corpus definition of ex-ex overlaps substantially with bined. The proposed distinction is that bined is localized and typically posture- or pressure-induced, whereas ex-ex is the broader fatigue-and-aching condition.
