EN: having nothing to do; idle
The official mood for Sunday afternoons. That feeling when you've scrolled through all your social media feeds, watched everything on your Netflix list, and now you're just staring at the ceiling, wondering about your life choices. It's the opposite of being busy, the national sport of the *tambay*.
Mula sa "wala" (none) at "gagawin" (will do), ang hinaharap na anyo ng pandiwang "gawin".
ROOT MEANING: to do; to make
Often used to describe a state of boredom or free time. Can be used interchangeably with 'walang ginagawa', but this one can specifically refer to a future lack of plans.
