EN: awful behavior; trashy conduct
This is when the ugliness isn't on the face, but in the attitude. It's the 'ugaling chaka.' Spreading gossip? Chararat behavior. Being rude to service crew? Super chararat behavior. Not returning the money you borrowed? The ultimate chararat behavior. It's a social violation, an offense against decency and good vibes.
A modern phrase combining the swardspeak term 'chararat' (hideously ugly) with the English word 'behavior.' Popularized in social media.
ROOT MEANING: very ugly; hideously ugly
Used to call out negative or toxic actions, separate from physical appearance.
