EN: to be splashed with
When a jeepney speeds through a puddle and gives you an impromptu, dirty shower, you just got `masabuyan`. It's the universe's way of telling you that you should have worn darker pants. Can also be used for being splashed with insults or negativity.
From `ma-` (involuntary action) + `saboy` (splash) + `-an` (locative suffix).
ROOT MEANING: splash; scatter
The focus is on being the recipient of the splash, usually unintentionally.
