FIL: Isang taludtod o hanay ng mga salita sa isang tula. Maaari rin itong tumukoy sa isang mahabang hilera o pila ng mga tao o bagay.
EN: verse, line
This word has two vibes. The artsy one: it's a line in a poem, the kind you'd use for a dramatic spoken-word piece or a 'hugot' post. "Sa bawat balaybay ng tula, ikaw ang paksa." The practical one: it's a long, orderly line, like the queue for a new milk tea shop or the line of cars on EDSA during rush hour.
Often used in literary contexts for poetry, but can also mean a physical line or row.
