EN: is panicking; is flustered
You, when your boss messages "Can we talk?" with no context. Or when you realize your wallet isn't in your bag five minutes after leaving the restaurant. It's that headless chicken mode where you're flustered, confused, and making frantic but unproductive movements. "Kalma lang, 'wag kang mataranta!" is easier said than done.
From Spanish 'atarantar' (to stun, to daze).
Present tense of 'mataranta'. Describes a state of panic or confusion.
