EN: suicide; the act of killing oneself
This is a heavy one. It's the act of taking one's own life. It's a topic that's often whispered about, but needs to be discussed openly with care and empathy. It's the ultimate act of hopelessness for some, and a reminder for the rest of us to always check in on our friends.
From pag- (nominalizer) + pa- (causative, reflexive) + tiwakal (to commit suicide).
A very serious term. Used in news reports, psychological contexts, and formal discussions about mental health.
