EN: unlucky
The feeling when you missed the last seat on the MRT, your Grab got cancelled, and it started raining the moment you decided to walk. Basically, the universe is playing a prank on you. You're "malas."
From `walang` (without/none) + Spanish `suerte` (luck).
ROOT MEANING: luck; lucky
Interchangeable with "malas". "Suwerte" itself is a very common loanword.
