EN: meaning, significance
This is a level-up from 'kahulugan'. It's not just the definition, it's the *significance*. It's asking 'What's the point?' or 'What does it all mean?'. When you're having an existential crisis at 3 AM, you're looking for the katuturan of life. It’s the ‘why’ behind the ‘what’.
From ka- + tuturan (from 'turan' - to state, to mention).
A deep, often philosophical word. More profound than 'kahulugan' (definition).
🇵🇭 Hinahanap niya ang katuturan ng kanyang buhay.
🇺🇸 He is searching for the meaning of his life.
🇵🇭 Nawalan ng katuturan ang lahat ng kanyang pinaghirapan.
🇺🇸 Everything he worked hard for lost its significance.
