FIL: Ang kalagayan ng pag-atras, pagliit, o pagbalik sa dating posisyon o laki.
EN: retraction, shrinkage
This is what happens to your favorite cotton shirt after you put it in the dryer on high heat. It's also that feeling when you're about to confront someone, tapos bigla kang umatras kasi 'di mo pala kaya—that's `pagkaurong` ng dila (or ng tapang). It’s the opposite of progress; it's a retreat, a shrinkage.
Mula sa `pagka-` (estado ng) + `urong` (pag-atras o pagliit).
ROOT MEANING: to shrink, to contract
Maaaring tumukoy sa pisikal na pagliit, pag-atras sa isang kasunduan, o sikolohikal na pag-urong.
