EN: to end up disagreeing; for a plan not to push through
That awkward moment when your barkada's travel plans slowly die in the group chat. One by one, people back out until "drawing na lang." That whole process is "nagkahindian." It's the polite Filipino way of things falling apart because someone said "hindi" (no), and then someone else did, and so on. It's the ghosting of group plans.
From `magka-` + `hindi` (no) + `-an` (suffix indicating a reciprocal action).
ROOT MEANING: no; not
Implies a mutual or collective backing out or disagreement that leads to a plan's failure.
