EN: mercury
That slippery, silvery liquid metal from your high school science class that you weren't supposed to touch. 'Asoge' is what's inside old-school thermometers. It’s also used metaphorically for someone who can't stay still, 'parang may asoge sa katawan' (like they have mercury in their body). Think of a hyperactive kid or your friend who can't sit through a whole movie.
Mula sa Espanyol na "azogue."
Often used in the idiom "parang may asoge sa katawan" to describe a restless or hyperactive person.
