EN: opposition; contradiction; defiance
This is the official term for being 'that guy' in a meeting who says 'I object!' It's the act of pushing back, resisting, or contradicting. When your parents tell you to be a doctor but you want to be an artist, your choice is an act of 'pagsalansang'. It's the core of any debate, argument, or rebellion. You're not just disagreeing quietly; you're actively opposing something.
ROOT MEANING: contrary; opposed; adverse
This is the more standard and common spelling compared to 'pagsalangsang'.
