Dimly

Dimly
murkily, pallely

in a way that does not provide much light:

• dimly lit back streets

if you can dimly see or hear something, you can only just see or hear it because it is dark or far away:

• He could dimly see the house ahead of him.

if you dimly remember or understand something, you only remember or understand a little of it:

• Nina was only dimly aware of the doctor coming in.
