EN: to strike or tap something to produce a sound
It's like when you're bored in the office and you start drumming on your desk with a pen. Or when a kid discovers that tapping a spoon on a pot makes a really "great" sound. That's *kalatungin*. You're making a rhythmic (or not-so-rhythmic) noise by hitting something.
From "kalatong," a type of bamboo percussion instrument.
Often used in the context of indigenous music or simple, improvised percussion.
