EN: to be insulted; to feel offended
That moment when a "joke" from a tito doesn't land right ("Uy, tumaba ka!"). It's when a comment hits a nerve and you're left thinking, "Insulto ba 'yun o compliment?" In the age of social media, it's what happens when you read the comments section.
From `ma-` (potential verb prefix) + `insulto` (insult) + `-han` (locative/benefactive suffix). 'Insulto' is from Spanish 'insulto'.
ROOT MEANING: insult
This is the potential/infinitive form. `Nainsulto` is the completed aspect. It focuses on the person receiving the insult.
