EN: to tie; to draw (in a game)
The feeling when you and your ex both show up single to a reunion. Walang nanalo, walang natalo. It's the "it is what it is" of competition. In basketball, it's that heart-stopping moment before overtime. In chess, it's when you both run out of moves. In arguments, it's when you both agree to disagree.
From Spanish 'tabla' (board, table), which in the context of games means a draw or tie, with the Tagalog -um- infix.
ROOT MEANING: tie, draw, even (score)
Used specifically for games, contests, and competitions.
