FIL: Ang pagkakaroon ng kaalaman o kamalayan tungkol sa isang bagay; alam.
EN: known; aware
This is the more formal, almost poetic way of saying 'alam.' It's not just 'I know,' it's 'It is known to me.' Sounds like something a news anchor or a character in a historical teleserye would say. If 'alam' is a text message, 'batid' is a calligraphed letter. 'Batid ko ang iyong mga sekreto,' sounds way more dramatic than 'Alam ko.'
Often used in formal writing, literature, and news reporting. Interchangeable with 'alam' but carries a more formal and profound tone.
