Drab (Noun) – Slattern or prostitute

I encountered the word by looking at the sentence. As it says in “City Limits,” “The city also puts a lot of effort into making your hometown look really drab and tiny…” Drab also sounds like a drag so I thought it would mean something like something tiny or somewhere you don’t want to be.

Example: Somber and drab, the gloomy hospital room made the depressed patient even sadder.
