EN: devastation; act of ravaging
This is what happens when a super typhoon decides to give your town a 'makeover'. It's nature's version of a rage quit, leaving everything in shambles. Think Ondoy, Yolanda – that level of destruction. It's the 'wala nang natira' moment.
From `pag-` (verbal noun prefix) + `salanta` (devastated, ravaged).
Commonly used in the context of natural disasters, epidemics, or war.
