EN: to run amok; to go on a rampage
Ever felt so angry at your slow internet connection that you just want to flip the table? That's the feeling. It's when someone snaps and goes berserk. The word has a dark history, but now we use it (sometimes jokingly) for any extreme outburst of anger. "Naghuramentado si boss nung nalamang bagsak ang sales."
From Spanish 'juramentado' (one who has taken an oath), referring to Moro warriors in Philippine history who took an oath to die fighting invaders. The meaning has since shifted to 'run amok'.
ROOT MEANING: amok, berserk
A very strong word describing a violent, uncontrolled outburst.
