somnolent (SOM-nuh-luhnt) - adj., sleepy, drowsy; inducing sleep.


I beg your pardon, but I resemble that remark ...

So this applies to both the entity that is almost asleep :yawn: or anything that is sleep-causing, such as an enervating environment. First appears in the 15th century, originally spelled sompnolent, from Anglo-Norman, from Old French, from Latin somnolentus, from somnus, sleep.
