EN: to pretend to be angry; to feign anger
This is your friend's 'galit' when you forget to buy them pasalubong. It's not real anger, just drama for effect. It's that performance you put on for your parents when they tell you to wash the dishes, even though you were going to do it anyway. The 'galit' is more for show, like a teleserye kontrabida practicing in the mirror.
The suffix '-galitan' comes from the reduplication of 'galit' and the suffix '-an', which often implies a simulated or playful action.
