EN: giving one's all; going all out
That moment you decide to stop holding back. It's the "all-in" or "beast mode" of Tagalog. It's singing your heart out at the karaoke even if you're out of tune, dressing up for a party like it's the Met Gala, or cramming for an exam with the energy of three energy drinks. When you 'pagtodo', there are no half-measures. Go big or go home.
From Spanish 'todo' (all, everything).
ROOT MEANING: all; everything; full-blast
This is a colloquial or slang term, a Taglish construction from 'pag-' (gerund-forming prefix) and the Spanish word 'todo'. It can also function adverbially.
