EN: troublemaker, instigator
That one person in the group chat who always starts a controversial topic. The younger sibling who bothers you while you're studying for an exam. The 'kontrabida' in your life's teleserye. They thrive in chaos.
From `mang-` + `gugulo` (future tense of `gulo`, 'to cause trouble'). The noun form is derived from the actor-focus verb form for "one who will cause trouble."
ROOT MEANING: chaos, trouble, disorder, mess
Can refer to a person who is intentionally malicious or just playfully annoying. Not to be confused with the verb `manggulo` (to cause trouble).
