FIL: Ang pagdanas ng kawalan ng suwerte o ang pagkakaroon ng hindi magandang kapalaran.
EN: unlucky
That feeling when you washed your car and then it suddenly rains. Or when you're the only one who didn't get the memo about the cancelled class. Or when the Grab driver cancels on you after you've waited 15 minutes. It's the universe saying 'not today, bes.'
From Spanish 'malas' (bad), as in 'malas suertes' (bad luck).
Can also be used as a noun to mean 'bad luck' (e.g., 'Ang malas mo naman!' - 'What bad luck you have!').
🇵🇭 Ang malas ko naman ngayon, naiwan ko ang wallet ko sa bahay.
🇺🇸 I'm so unlucky today, I left my wallet at home.
🇵🇭 Huwag kang maniwala diyan, hindi ka malas sa pag-ibig.
🇺🇸 Don't believe that, you're not unlucky in love.
