EN: fainting; convulsion
That moment in a cheap horror movie when the character sees the ghost and just collapses. Or when someone sees their celebrity crush in person and literally can't even. It's the body's emergency shutdown switch when things get too intense.
An old term. 'Pagkahimatay' is much more common for fainting. 'Paghikit' can also specifically refer to convulsions.
