EN: slack; loose (from being stretched)
That feeling of your favorite garterized shorts after a year of use—wala nang kapit. It’s like a relationship that's lost its spark, medyo 'maluwag' na. It's the opposite of 'banat' (taut).
Often used to describe things that have lost their elasticity or tension, like ropes, garters, or skin. Do not confuse with the verb root 'hagpos' which means 'to whip' (e.g., hagpusin).
🇵🇭 Hagpos na ang garter ng luma kong shorts.
🇺🇸 The garter of my old shorts is already loose.
🇵🇭 Dahil sa katandaan, naging hagpos ang kanyang balat.
🇺🇸 Due to old age, her skin became slack.
