EN: maidenhood, adolescence (female), state of being a young woman
It's the era of debuts, first crushes, "paalam ka muna sa parents mo," and figuring out what you want to be in life. It's a mix of newfound freedom and a whole new set of rules. It’s the transition phase from being a 'bata' to a 'tita-in-training'.
From `pagiging` (the state of being, from root `gíng`) + `dalaga` (young unmarried woman).
