FIL: Isang partikular na rehiyon o bahagi ng isang lugar, gusali, o espasyo; isang sakop na pook.
EN: Area, vicinity, zone
In the Philippines, 'area' is more than just a location. It's your territory, your turf. "Taga-saan ka?" is often followed by "Saang area?" It's how we map our social circles. Also used by security guards: "Sir, bawal po diyan. Restricted area." It's the space you're either supposed to be in or definitely not.
From English "area".
Widely used in everyday conversation, often interchangeably with "lugar" or "pook".
