FIL: Tumutukoy sa isang tunog na napakataas, matinis, at kung minsan ay hindi kaaya-aya sa pandinig.
EN: high-pitched, shrill
The sound of your alarm clock that you want to throw against the wall. The sound of chalk screeching on a blackboard. The sound of your Tita screaming your name from across the mall. That's 'matin-is.' It's the audio equivalent of a needle prick.
Describes sounds, particularly voices or noises that are unpleasantly high. The more common spelling is 'matinis'.
