EN: to be able to get loose; to be able to escape
This is for your aso who keeps getting off its leash, or for you trying to escape a boring family reunion. It’s the verb for freedom, whether it's from a literal cage, a 'toxic' relationship, or a mountain of debt. 'Kailan kaya ako makakawala sa mga utang ko?'
From `makaka-` (future ability prefix) + `wala` (in the context of `kawala` or being loose/free).
ROOT MEANING: none; nothing; absent
This is the future tense. `Nakawala` is past tense, `nakakawala` is present tense. It implies breaking free from a restraint.
🇵🇭 Itali mong mabuti ang aso para hindi makakawala.
