uncomfortably but not severely cold

A little too cold in a way that does not feel nice, especially in the air or in a room.

الگوی کاربرد: [something] is chilly; [someone] feels chilly
اشتباه رایج:
Learners sometimes confuse "chilly" with "chili" (the spicy food or pepper), which are different words with different spellings. They may also use "chilly" for extremely low, freezing temperatures; in those cases, words like "freezing" or "icy" are more natural. Another confusion is between "chilly" and "chill"; "chilly" is mainly an adjective for temperature, while "chill" is more often a noun or verb.

emotionally cold or unfriendly

Not friendly or warm in the way you speak or act to someone.

الگوی کاربرد: [someone] gives [someone] a chilly [reaction]
اشتباه رایج:
Learners sometimes think "chilly" here means that a person is relaxed or "cool" in a positive way. In this emotional sense, "chilly" is negative and means not friendly or warm. It is also more about behavior or attitude in a situation (a chilly reply, a chilly reception) than about a basic personality trait.
هم‌معنی‌ها
frosty (Very similar; often a bit stronger and more clearly disapproving than "chilly.") | distant (Focuses on emotional or social distance rather than temperature; can sound slightly more formal or psychological.) | cold (More general and often stronger; can suggest a lack of human feeling, not just politeness without warmth.)
متضادها
warm (Describes friendly and kind behavior, the opposite of emotionally cold or chilly behavior.) | welcoming (Emphasizes making someone feel accepted and comfortable, the opposite of a chilly reception.) | friendly (General opposite for a person's manner or attitude toward others.)
