EN: ring; circlet
This is the fancy, Spanish-derived word for 'singsing' (ring). You'd probably hear this from your lola when she's talking about her old jewelry. It can also refer to any ring-shaped object, like the rings on a binder or the rings used in construction. Think of it as the 'alta' version of a ring.
From Spanish 'anillo' (ring).
While 'singsing' is more common for finger rings, 'anilyo' can be used for that and other ring-shaped objects.
