FIL: Isang maingay at paulit-ulit na pag-aaway o pagtatalo tungkol sa maliliit o hindi mahalagang bagay.
EN: Bickering, squabbling, wrangling
This is pagtatalo's petty little brother. It's not a serious debate; it's that endless back-and-forth about who didn't wash the dishes or why you're 5 minutes late. It's the kind of argument that goes nowhere and just gets louder. Think of two vendors in the palengke arguing over a few pesos. It's high-volume, low-substance arguing.
From "pag-" (verbal noun prefix) + "taltal" (to dispute noisily).
Implies a more chaotic, noisy, and often pointless argument compared to `pagtatalo`.
