This is a non-native’s Spanish-style rendering of the English word pessimistic. The actual Spanish adjective is pesimista.
pesimistiko
pessimistic
Not just Filipinos, but many non-native speakers of Spanish like American learners, mistakenly believe that the Spanish translation of “pessimistic” is pesimistico because of the usual pattern of adding -tico or -tica to change Spanish word forms.
Being “pessimistic” means having a negative outlook in life. It’s the opposite of being optimistic.
