One of the translations of ngambek is to sulk. However, the word means so much more than that.

Ngambek can also be used to describe someone who is being childish or when a child is throwing a tantrum at you.
Bobby has just broken up with his girlfriend. His dad asked his mom why he is not going out of his room. His mom replied with, “dia lagi (he is) ngambek.”

Dia lagi ngambek in this context means that he is so brokenhearted that he has no will to leave his room.

Bobby just had a fight with his dad because his dad was forcing him to leave his room. Bobby then refused to talk with his dad.

Here, you can also say “Dia lagi ngambek.” However, ngambek in this context means that Bobby is ignoring you because he is pissed at you.
