Etymology

[edit]

Borrowed from Spanish tirada (a throw, cast, pull, shot, printed run), feminine past participle of tirar (to pull, throw, shoot). Compare Tagalog tirada.

In Philippine sports, games (like billiards, basketball, or card games), and gambling, a *tirada* refers to a "turn," "shot," "move," or "play." In modern colloquial slang, its meaning has dynamically expanded to encompass a person's style, current hustle, target, choice of consumption, or immediate agenda.
