EN: stain; smudge; dirt mark
Eto 'yung mantsa ng chocolate sa pisngi ng bata, 'yung uling sa noo mo pagkatapos mag-ihaw, or 'yung pen mark sa puting uniform mo. It's that small spot of imperfection that someone will always point out: "Uy, may buling ka sa mukha!"
Often refers to a small, easily removable spot of dirt, as opposed to a permanent stain ('mantsa').
