EN: will go straight
The future tense of "going straight ahead." It's what you tell the taxi driver when you don't want any detours. It's also your game plan after a long day at work: "Uwi na ako, didiretso na sa kama." No side trips, no extra drama, just straight to the goal.
From 'diretso', which is from Spanish 'derecho'. The 'di-' is a reduplication of the first syllable of the root to indicate future tense.
ROOT MEANING: Straight; Directly
