EN: a crack; a break
The sound your mom hears from the kitchen that makes her yell your full name. It's the literal crack in the pavement you try to avoid, or the metaphorical basag in a friendship after a big fight.
From Proto-Philippine *baseq.
Refers to the crack or fracture itself, as opposed to the state of being cracked.
🇵🇭 May basag ang screen ng cellphone mo.
🇺🇸 There's a crack on your cellphone screen.
🇵🇭 Narinig ko ang basag ng plato nang mahulog ito.
