/BO-la nang BO-ling/
FIL: Isang mabigat at bilog na bola na ginagamit sa laro ng boling (bowling).
EN: bowling ball
That heavy thing you try to roll straight down the lane but always ends up in the gutter. Choosing a bola ng boling is a serious commitment—too light and it's weak, too heavy and you might dislocate your shoulder. It's the key to getting a strike or just looking silly in those rented shoes.
From Tagalog "bola" (from Spanish "bola") + "ng" + "boling" (from English "bowling").
A straightforward compound noun.
🇵🇭 Masyadong mabigat ang bola ng boling na napili ko.
🇺🇸 The bowling ball I chose is too heavy.
🇵🇭 Bumili siya ng sarili niyang bola ng boling.
🇺🇸 He bought his own bowling ball.
