EN: to give the silent treatment (to someone); to sulk about (something)
Ito yung ginagawa mo sa jowa mo pag 'di ka niya nireplyan agad. Hindi ka galit, pero hindi mo rin siya kinakausap. You're not breaking up, you're just... marinating in your feelings. It's the cold shoulder, Pinoy-style, usually solved with food or lambing.
ROOT MEANING: sulking
A very culturally specific verb. 'Tampo' has no direct English equivalent. It's a non-confrontational way of expressing hurt feelings to a loved one.
