EN: Blister; miss; failure
**Paltos** is what you get on your feet after wearing new shoes to a party without socks. It's that bubble of pain and regret. Figuratively, it's also a 'miss' or a 'failure.' 'Yung nag-effort ka mag-shoot ng basura sa trash can from a distance, pero sumablay? That's also a **paltos**. A physical ouch or a metaphorical one.
Used both literally for a skin blister ('lintos' is a synonym) and figuratively for a miss or failure ('sablay' is a synonym).
