FIL: Isang anak na ipinanganak na hindi kasal ang mga magulang.
EN: illegitimate child
A term straight out of a teleserye plot. This is the child who often shows up during the will reading, creating drama and chaos. It's an old-school, slightly judgmental term for a child whose parents weren't married. In 2026, we're moving past the stigma, but the 'chismis' potential is still high-grade.
Mula sa "anak" (child) at "sa puwera" (outside, mula sa Espanyol na 'fuera').
Maaaring ituring na luma na o may bahid ng pangmamaliit. Ang "anak sa labas" ay isang mas karaniwang kasingkahulugan.
