EN: to be set with a limit or deadline
This is the universe (or your project manager) telling you, "You have until 5 PM to finish this, or else." It's that moment your phone plan gets a data cap, or when your 'unli' rice is suddenly limited to 3 cups. Your freedom has been 'matakdaan'.
From `ma-` (ability/passive) + `takda` (limit, assignment) + `-an` (locative/object focus suffix).
