Nothing here is a separate word to memorise: is turned inside out by -, and that is the whole grammar of it. What the root gives away for free is a small family: is cold as a thing, is to chill something, is to grow cold, and is a head cold, with for catching one. The weather uses the adverb rather than the adjective, because there is no subject to describe: , not . Applied to people it turns emotional exactly as in English, so a is a chilly one.
