EN: to run away in different directions; to scatter by running
This is what happens when someone shouts 'May ipis!' in a room full of people, or 'Libre!' at a corporate event. It's chaotic, simultaneous running. It’s the physical manifestation of the 'panic' button being hit by a group. Everyone for themselves!
From mag- + pa- + takbuh- + -an. A complex verb form indicating a sudden, collective, and often chaotic action.
ROOT MEANING: run, race; course
The '-an' suffix combined with 'magpa-' often denotes a simultaneous, reciprocal, or chaotic group action.
