EN: to sabotage
The act of being a snake. It's when you secretly mess things up for someone else. That coworker who 'accidentally' deleted your presentation? **Sumabutahe** 'yan. The friend who tells your crush you have a weird hobby? Sabotage! It's the ultimate backstab, the shady move done to make someone else fail. It's not 'teamwork makes the dream work,' it's 'I work to make your dream a nightmare.'
From 'sabutahe' (sabotage), from Spanish 'sabotaje'. The verb is formed with the actor-focus infix '-um-'.
A strong word implying deliberate and malicious intent to cause failure or disruption.
