EN: Advanced (payment); forward; presumptuous
This is your tita who asks "Kailan ka ikakasal?" the moment you introduce your new jowa. She's jumping the gun, she's adelantada. It can also mean getting your salary in advance (a.k.a. "vale"), which is great until the actual payday comes and you're broke. It's being too forward, whether in a conversation or with your finances.
From Spanish "adelantada" (advanced, forward - feminine).
Can have a slightly negative connotation, implying someone is being presumptuous or nosy.
🇵🇭 Adelantada ka naman masyado, hindi pa nga kami, tinatanong mo na kung saan ang kasal.
🇺🇸 You're being too presumptuous, we're not even a couple yet and you're already asking where the wedding will be.
🇵🇭 Kumuha ako ng adelantada na sahod para sa biglaang gastos.
🇺🇸 I got an advanced salary for an emergency expense.
