EN: state of being overturned; state of being face down
This is that "I give up" pose when life gives you too many lemons. Imagine your bangka flipping over during a storm, or you, face-down on your bed after a brutal work week. That's the energy of pagkataob. Total surrender, but not always in a bad way. Sometimes, it's just accepting you need a nap.
From 'pagka-' (state/manner of) + 'taob' (overturned).
Can refer to literal overturning (like a boat or a cup) or a figurative defeat or overwhelming situation.
