EN: to get very tangled; to get very creased
This is the state of your earphones after being in your pocket for 0.5 seconds. It's your hair after a motorcycle ride without a helmet. It's your freshly laundered shirt that you forgot in the dryer for three days. The "gusut-gusot" means it's not just one tangle, it's a whole ecosystem of tangles. Good luck untangling that—or your life problems.
From `magka-` + duplicated root `gusot` (tangle, crease).
The duplication of "gusot" intensifies the state of being tangled or wrinkled.

🇵🇭 Ayusin mo ang sinulid para hindi magkagusut-gusot.
🇺🇸 Fix the thread so it doesn't get very tangled.
