EN: a collision; an accident
The chismis magnet on EDSA. When you see traffic suddenly stop, it's probably because of a 'bungguan'. It's the actual collision event or the place where it happened. It's the reason you're late for work, and your boss won't believe you until they see it on the news.
From 'bunggo' + '-an'.
ROOT MEANING: collision; crash; bump
More specific than 'bunggo', often referring to a more significant accident, typically involving vehicles.
