/BA-yas yarn/
FIL: Isang ekspresyong balbal na pinagsasama ang salitang Ingles na "bias" at ang salitang balbal na "yarn" (mula sa 'diyan'). Ginagamit upang ipahiwatig ang pagdududa o sarkasmo sa sinasabi ng isang tao, na parang sinasabing may pagkiling o hindi totoo ang pahayag.
EN: "Is that so?" / "Really?" (sarcastic)
This is peak Gen Z / Twitter slang. It's a sassy, sarcastic way of saying "Oh, really?" or "Says you." It's like calling someone out for being biased in a funny, dismissive way. "Maganda ako." "Okay, bias yarn?" It's the modern version of "weh, di nga?".
Combination of English "bias" and gay lingo/slang "yarn" (from "diyan" or "iyan").
Highly informal. Used in casual online and offline conversations. The "yarn" part is a versatile suffix in Filipino slang, often replacing "diyan" or used for emphasis.
