FIL: Isang astronomical na bagay na binubuo ng isang makinang na spheroid ng plasma. Sa karaniwang gamit, ito ay ang mga tuldok ng liwanag sa kalangitan sa gabi.
EN: star
The OG source of light before Meralco. It's a star. But in the Philippines, it's also what we call celebrities ('Siya ay isang sikat na bituin sa pelikula'), the things you wish upon when you're feeling hopeless, and the main decoration of our Christmas parol. It's the ultimate symbol of hope and fame.
From Proto-Malayo-Polynesian *bituən.
Used both literally for celestial bodies and figuratively for celebrities, aspirations, or star-shaped objects.
🇵🇭 Puno ng mga bituin ang kalangitan ngayong gabi.
🇺🇸 The sky is full of stars tonight.
🇵🇭 Pangarap niyang maging isang sikat na bituin sa industriya ng musika.
🇺🇸 Her dream is to become a famous star in the music industry.
