EN: out of place; inappropriate
That feeling when you wear a gown to a beach party, or make a "That's what she said" joke during a company board meeting. Your comment, your outfit, your very existence in that moment is `wala sa lugar`. It's the cringe-worthy awkwardness of not reading the room.
Parirala: `wala` (not) + `sa` (in) + `lugar` (place).
ROOT MEANING: none; nothing; absent
Maaaring tumukoy sa pisikal na maling pagkakalagay o, mas karaniwan, sa sosyal o kontekstwal na hindi pagiging angkop.
