atsitraukimo

atsitraukimo is a noun in the Malagasy language that denotes withdrawal or retreat. It refers to the act of pulling away from a person, a place, or an obligation, and can be used for both physical and figurative disengagement. The term is common in dictionaries and instructional texts as a basic concept for describing withdrawal.

In everyday use, atsitraukimo may describe someone stepping back from a discussion or ending involvement in a commitment, such as withdrawal from an agreement or a breakup of contact. In political or strategic discourse, it can refer to a deliberate retreat or pullback by a group, organization, or state.

In medical terminology, the word is sometimes used to translate the English withdrawal, particularly in phrases that denote cessation of a substance or dependence, though more explicit expressions like atsitraukimo soritr'aretina (withdrawal symptoms) are common.

In translation, atsitraukimo corresponds to withdrawal, retreat, or pullback, depending on context.
