EN: graze; glancing blow; scratch
That 'almost-but-not-quite' moment. When the basketball just grazes the rim, when the car beside you gets super close but doesn't actually hit you, or when a piece of chismis is *about* you but doesn't name you directly. It's a near miss. A close call. A 'muntik na!' moment.
Often used to describe minor injuries from a projectile or a sharp object that didn't fully connect.
