EN: delay; arrears; something overdue
Your life when you're always 'Filipino time.' It's the project you haven't finished, the bill you haven't paid, or the person you've kept waiting. Having an 'atraso' means you have a backlog, a debt, or you're simply late. It's the reason your boss gives you 'the look' on Monday morning.
From Spanish 'atraso' (delay, backwardness).
Can refer to being late, having pending tasks, or having unpaid debts.
