FIL: Isang malaking pangkat ng mga magkakamag-anak na nagmula sa isang ninuno; lipi o pamilya.
EN: clan
Your "angkan" is your squad, but like, the one you're born into. It's your entire family tree, from your lola who makes the best adobo to that tito who only shows up for free food. It's the reason for massive family reunions where you meet "cousins" for the first time. Think of it as your dynasty, even if your only family heirloom is a magic-sing microphone.
Refers to a large, extended family or clan, more formal and broader than 'pamilya'.
