EN: death
The ultimate 'ghosting'. It's the final 'Sana all... may rest in peace.' When your life's subscription expires. It's the big, inevitable ending that telenovelas love to use for dramatic effect and that we all face eventually. The root 'patay' means dead, and the circumfix 'ka-...-an' turns it into the abstract concept of 'death'.
From "ka-" + "patay" + "-an".
A fundamental and universally understood concept.
🇵🇭 Ang kamatayan ay isang natural na bahagi ng buhay.
🇺🇸 Death is a natural part of life.
🇵🇭 Labis siyang nalungkot sa kamatayan ng kanyang alagang aso.
🇺🇸 He was extremely saddened by the death of his pet dog.
