EN: worsening; becoming bad
This is when things go from bad to worse. Yung 'pagsama ng panahon' right before your big beach trip. O yung 'pagsama ng ugali' ng ex mo after the breakup. It's the universe (or a person) basically saying, 'You think this is bad? Hold my beer.'
ROOT MEANING: bad; evil; wrong
Derived from 'sama' meaning 'bad' or 'evil'. Pronunciation stress is on the second syllable, distinguishing it from the other 'pagsama'.
