FIL: Ang unang oras pagkatapos ng tanghali o hatinggabi.
EN: One o'clock
The official start of lunch break for many Pinoys. Also, the time when you promise to meet your friends, but you're really just leaving the house (Filipino time, amirite?). For the night shift, it's that 'one last push' hour before the shift ends.
From Spanish 'a la una' meaning 'at one'.
The 'a la' from Spanish becomes 'alas' for consistency in Filipino, even for 'one'. Can be written as 'alas-uno' or 'ala-una'.
