EN: unsharpened, dull
This is your lapis nung elementary days after a long-ass exam, totally flat. Or the kutsilyo in the office pantry that couldn't even slice a birthday cake properly. Basically, something that has lost its edge and is now functionally useless for its main cutting/piercing purpose.
From "walang" (without) and "tasa" (sharpening).
ROOT MEANING: cup
Primarily used for objects that are supposed to have a sharp point or edge.
