EN: syncope, syncopation
In music, **singkopa** (syncopation) is the funky, off-beat rhythm that gives OPM its flavor. In language, it's our natural tendency to be efficient (or lazy). It's why "tayo na" becomes "tena," and "nasaan" becomes "asan." It's the linguistic shortcut that makes Tagalog flow so smoothly in conversation.
Mula sa Espanyol na 'síncopa'.
A technical term used in both music theory and linguistics.
