/'A-mo/
FIL: Isang tao na may kapangyarihan o kontrol sa iba, tulad ng isang pinaglilingkuran, may-ari ng alagang hayop, o tagapag-empleyo.
EN: master; boss; employer
In the BPO world, this is your TL, OM, or client. In the pet world, you are the 'amo' of your furbaby (although let's be real, they're the real boss). In a traditional sense, it's the person you work for. It's the reason you have to say "Yes, Ma'am/Sir" even when you're screaming "Nooooo" on the inside.
From Spanish 'amo' (master, owner).
Can refer to an employer, the owner of a pet, or a master in a master-servant relationship. The stress is on the first syllable.
