FIL: Ang pagbabalik ng kamalayan mula sa pagkahimatay o pagkawala ng ulirat. Sa matalinghagang paraan, ito ay ang paggising sa katotohanan mula sa pagkakamali o maling akala.
EN: to come to one's senses; to regain consciousness
Two meanings: 1) Literally, when someone faints and you splash water on their face. 2) The more common, hugot meaning: The moment you realize your toxic ex was, in fact, toxic. It's the 'gising, girl!' moment, the realization that you deserve better, the epiphany that the 'marites' was right all along. It's waking up and smelling the kapeng barako of reality.
ROOT MEANING: person; human being
Can be literal (regain consciousness) or figurative (realize the truth/come to one's senses).
