The word is GIGIL. It's a Tagalog word and it's the feeling of wanting to pinch or squeeze someone or something because they're so cute. I have yet to find another language that has this term.

If you know know a term in another language that mean the same thing as gigil, please comment below! I'd love to learn it.
