/bi-HIS/
FIL: Nakasuot ng damit; hindi hubad.
EN: dressed; clothed
This is the state of being after a frantic 30-minute "ligo-bihis" routine before a Zoom call you forgot about. You are now presentable to the world (at least from the waist up). It's the opposite of "nakahubad". "Teka, hindi pa ako bihis!"
The pronunciation shifts stress to the second syllable (/bi-HIS/) when used as an adjective, compared to the noun form (/BI-his/).
🇵🇭 Bihis na ang mga bata at handa nang pumasok sa eskwela.

🇵🇭 Hintayin mo ako, hindi pa ako bihis.
🇺🇸 Wait for me, I'm not dressed yet.
