colic

Explanation:
It may be misspeled Croatian word "kolika" or "kolik" which comes from Latin "colicus" or Greek "kolikos" = relating to the colon.

Colic: noun - paroxysmal pain in the abdomen or bowels;
adj. - relating to or affecting the colon or the bowels.

Or, there is another possibility - misspeled Croatian word "koliko" which means "how much/many".

Hope this helps.

Regards!
