EN: to become high-pitched; to shriek
This is the sound you make when you see a cockroach fly. It’s the sound of a microphone feeding back during an event. It's when your voice goes up several octaves out of fear, excitement, or 'kilig'. "Tuminis ang boses niya nang makita si crush." It's the auditory equivalent of a jump scare.
Refers to the action of a sound becoming sharp or high-pitched. Can describe a voice, a whistle, or an instrument.
