EN: impervious, resistant, unaffected
When you've had five cups of coffee but still feel sleepy for your 9 AM meeting. The caffeine is 'di-tinatalaban'. Also, your friend who remains cheerful despite their toxic boss. Goals.
Mula sa unlaping 'di-' (hindi) at pandiwang 'tinatalaban' (is affected by).
ROOT MEANING: effect; efficacy; penetration
Very similar to 'di-tinatablan', but 'talab' is more often used for things that should have a chemical or internal effect (like medicine, poison, or magic), while 'tablan' is more for physical attacks. In practice, they are used interchangeably.
