👉 Dreariment is a term used in Russian literature, often associated with the novel "The Brothers Karamazov" by Fyodor Dostoevsky. It means "a poor man's joy." The word itself is derived from the Russian word "drear," which literally means "to make merry," but it has also been interpreted as a metaphorical term for someone who feels content and happy despite their circumstances or circumstances, without any emotional or intellectual fulfillment.
