/hi-LAK-bot/
FIL: Matinding takot o pangingilabot na nararamdaman dahil sa isang nakasisindak na pangyayari, bagay, o isipin.
EN: terror, horror, extreme fear
That feeling you get when you're watching a horror movie alone at 3 AM and you hear a strange noise from the kitchen. Or when you check your bank account after a 12.12 sale. Pure hilakbot. It's not just 'takot' (fear); it's fear with goosebumps and a racing heart.
Often used with the verb 'makaramdam' (to feel) or as a verb with the prefix 'mang-,' becoming 'manghilakbot' (to be terrified).
