EN: to break a promise, to renege
The ultimate friendship-ender. When your friend says 'libre kita next time' and 'next time' never comes. Or when someone promises 'ikaw lang, sapat na' but ends up having a '2nd-quarter new project'. It's the act of being 'paasa' (one who leads someone on).
From 'talo' (loss) + 'sira' (break). Literally 'to lose/break' one's word.
Carries a strong negative connotation of betrayal and untrustworthiness. 'Talusira' as a noun or adjective refers to a person who does this.
