FIL: Isang salitang balbal para sa isang taong may edad na ngunit kumikilos o nag-iisip na parang bata pa.
EN: man-child; immature adult
A portmanteau of 'borta' (a muscular man) and 'badjing' (a gay man), but its modern meaning has evolved. Now it's a playful jab at a guy who's physically an adult but mentally and emotionally still a kid. Think: 30-year-old who still asks his mom to wash his clothes and spends all his money on toys. It's the male equivalent of 'pabebe.'
Slang, possibly a portmanteau of 'borta' + 'badjing'. The meaning has shifted over time to mean 'immature man'.
A slang term, often used humorously among friends. Can be considered mildly insulting depending on the context.
