That sound you make when you chug your drink. It's the 'glug-glug' of Friday night inuman sessions. 'Isang **tungga** lang, ubos agad ang isang bote ng beer.' It’s the action, the sound, and the result all in one.
Almost exclusively used in the context of drinking, often alcoholic beverages. Also used as a verb root.
