FIL: Ang hindi sinasadyang paglalabas ng laman ng sikmura sa pamamagitan ng bibig.
EN: vomiting, act of vomiting
The unpleasant sequel to a night of bad decisions, a bumpy bus ride through Kennon Road, or that one sketchy street food you knew you shouldn't have eaten. Pagsusuka is your body's ultimate 'I regret everything' button. It's the reason why we keep plastic bags in the car, 'just in case.'
From `pag-` (nominalizer) + `su-` (reduplication) + `suka` (vomit). Not to be confused with `sukà` (vinegar).
ROOT MEANING: to vomit; to puke
Note the homonym `sukà` which means vinegar. The context and stress (`SU-ka` for vomit, `su-KÀ` for vinegar) are key.
