tilatilasta

Tilatilasta is a term originating from the Tagalog language, primarily used in the Philippines. It generally refers to a state of being overwhelmed or filled to the brim with something, often with a sense of slight discomfort or a feeling of being over-satisfied. This can apply to both physical and emotional situations.

For example, one might say their stomach is "tilatilasta" after a large meal, indicating they are uncomfortably full. Emotionally, it can describe a person who is "tilatilasta" with work or worries, meaning they have too much on their plate and are struggling to cope. The word conveys a sense of abundance that has reached its limit, pushing beyond a comfortable capacity. It's not necessarily a negative term, but it does imply a situation where more cannot be added without causing a problem. The intensity of the feeling can vary, but the core meaning remains the experience of being completely filled.
