EN: conflict; contradiction; paradox
That moment in a teleserye when the protagonist finds out her boyfriend is also her long-lost brother. That's a major 'salungatan'. It's any kind of conflict, from a simple 'conflict of interest' in the office to the deep philosophical contradictions you think about at 3 AM. It's the drama, the plot twist, the 'resbak' waiting to happen.
From `salungat` meaning 'opposite' or 'contrary', with the suffix `-an` creating a noun that signifies a place or situation characterized by the root word.
A formal term for conflict, dispute, or contradiction.
