Grimy means covered with dirt — the kind that sticks. Think soot, grease, city dust, the black around a mechanic's nails. A grimy window does not just need a quick wipe; it has a film on it. The word is informal and paints a picture. You would not usually call a clean hospital grimy, and you would not call a person grimy just because their shirt is a bit . Though actually, people stretch it for places that feel neglected — a grimy café, a grimy alley — even when you cannot name the exact dirt. It is about dirt you can almost feel, not about a dark mood.
髒兮兮的；佈滿油污、煤灰那種髒（不是輕輕一層灰）
組成From grime (sticky dirt) + -y (full of).
