EN: gasping; panting
That feeling when you see your electricity bill for the summer months. It's the sound you make when you've just run up five flights of stairs because the elevator is broken, or when you hear the latest shocking showbiz chismis. It's a physical "OMG."
From `pag-` (gerund affix) + `singap` (root).
Often used to describe a reaction of shock or physical exertion. Differentiated from 'paghingal' which is more prolonged panting.
