EN: fierceness; potency; severity
The 'extra spicy' level of everything. It's the potency of a strong liquor ('alak'), the venom of a snake ('kamandag'), or the fury of your mom when you come home past curfew. It's not just strong, it's dangerously strong. The phrase 'bagsik pumatay' just emphasizes its lethal quality.
Often used to describe poison (lason), storms (bagyo), diseases (sakit), or anger (galit).
🇵🇭 Nakakatakot ang bagsik ng kamandag ng ahas.
🇺🇸 The potency of the snake's venom is frightening.
