EN: adolescent male, bachelor
This is the stage between being a 'toddler' and a 'tito'. The 'baguntao' is a young man, a bachelor, navigating the awkwardness of adolescence and early adulthood. Think high school proms, first crushes, and the constant struggle of wanting independence while still living with your parents.
Compound word from 'bago' (new) and 'tao' (person).
A somewhat formal or literary term for a young man or bachelor. 'Binata' is more common in everyday speech.
