The feminine version of 'loko'. This is what you call your bestie when she suggests a spontaneous trip to La Union at 10 PM, or when she buys another pair of shoes she doesn't need. It can range from "clinically insane" to "adorably quirky." Often said with affection, as in, "Ay, loka-loka ka talaga!" followed by laughter.
Mula sa Espanyol na "loca" (crazy female).
ROOT MEANING: crazy, foolish, insane
Can be used as an adjective (e.g., "babaeng loka") or as a noun/term of address (e.g., "Hoy, loka!"). The intensity depends heavily on tone.
