EN: to quarantine
Ah, the word that defined 2020. It's when your house became your office, gym, cinema, and prison all at once. The ultimate "staycation" you never asked for, fueled by Dalgona coffee, TikTok trends, and endless Zoom calls. To be 'quarantined' was to be grounded by the universe.
From Spanish 'cuarentena'.
Became an everyday word during the COVID-19 pandemic. Often used in its past tense form "ikinuwarentenas".
🇵🇭 Kailangang ikuwarentenas ang sinumang magpositibo sa test.
🇺🇸 Anyone who tests positive needs to be quarantined.
🇵🇭 Ikinuwarentenas ang buong barangay dahil sa mabilis na pagkalat ng sakit.
🇺🇸 The whole barangay was quarantined due to the rapid spread of the disease.
