The roof over your head. The thing that turns into a percussion instrument during a typhoon, making you wonder if your 'yero' (galvanized iron sheet) will suddenly fly to the next barangay. Having a solid 'bubong' is a life goal, literally meaning you have a home.
From Proto-Philippine *bubuŋ.
A fundamental word in housing and construction.
