EN: to reach midnight
That point in the night when your BPO shift is just starting, or when you're deep into a K-drama marathon and you tell yourself "isa na lang" (just one more episode). It's the deadline for Cinderella and the start of deep, questionable life choices made over instant noodles.
ROOT MEANING: midnight
A compound word from "maka-" (to reach/be able to) and "hatinggabi" (midnight). Used as a verb.
