Description: “Putangina" is a term in Filipino that is considered vulgar and profane. It is a colloquial expression that combines the words "puta" (whore) and "ina" (mother).

Sometimes, it can also be used as an expression in a casual conversation to express very strong emotions - whether it be surprise, anger, incredulity. It all depends on how it’s used.
