Words for dirty and disorganized
Judging from their vocabulary alone, Pangasinenses view cleanliness as being next to godliness.
Traditional cleaning practices equally bear this out.
Cleaning is second nature to locals such that unclean members of the family or community are looked upon with contempt, as proven by many negative words associated with the unhygienic (dugyot, burayen, dadarayet, etc.).
The synonyms for dirty are especially numerous; they include marutak, maringot/maringdingot, amoringot, amoringis, and kandingot.
More nuanced terms the indicate excessive dirt include atibatib, mannelnab, mandetdelpet, manpikat, manpikkat, beryutak, atingapol, and makagi-kagit.
Amoyanggo is used to describe the disheveled hair of someone who just got out of bed, and its synonyms include asaganet, amurakday, and atili-tili (hair that got entangled in a very messy way).
Words for disorganized include atalangkab, mantataligabuan, asiwaklat, akitungilang, manuusilan, magulo-gulo, makalat, and mantatabugis.
When eating, food that is akama-kama (handled with bare hands) or akalansaw (taken without using serving spoon or ladle) is frowned upon.
