EN: deviation; digression; contradiction
This is when you go against the grain. It's the act of doing the opposite. If everyone is going to the new trendy cafe, and you decide to go to the old-school carinderia, that's **pagtaliwas**. It's contradicting the norm, deviating from the plan, or when a politician's actions are in **pagtaliwas** to their promises.
From `pag-` (nominalizing prefix) + `taliwas` (contrary, opposite).
Often used to point out a contradiction or a deviation from an expected norm or path.
