FIL: Isang pormal na gusali ng pamahalaan na nakalaan para sa mga paglilitis at pagpapatupad ng batas; korte.
EN: courthouse, hall of justice
Another term for the courthouse. Think of it as the government's official 'Maritess' headquarters, where all the 'sabi-sabi' becomes admissible evidence (or not). It's where lawyers do their 'Objection, your Honor!' moments IRL, not just in movies.
From "bahay" (house) + "husgado" (judiciary), from Spanish 'juzgado' (court).
ROOT MEANING: court of law, judiciary
Interchangeable with "bahay-hukuman".
