EN: to be spilled; to be poured accidentally
That mini-panic when you knock over your cup of coffee on your laptop. Or when you're carrying a bag of rice from the palengke and it has a hole. 'Ay, nabubo!' is the official cry. It's the reason why we say 'Sayang...' a lot.
From `ma-` + `bubo` (spill).
Used for accidental spilling of liquids (water, coffee) or granular items (rice, salt).
