FIL: Isang tao, koponan, o hayop na nagwagi at nanaig laban sa lahat ng kalaban sa isang kumpetisyon o paligsahan.
EN: champion
Same as English, but with a Pinoy twist. It's not just for sports. Your lola's adobo? Champion! The person who can navigate EDSA during rush hour without losing their mind? Champion! That friend who aced an exam without studying? Champion! It's a high-five in word form, a recognition of excellence in any field, from the basketball court to the kitchen.
From English 'champion,' which came from Old French 'champion.'
Used both in its literal sense (sports, contests) and as a colloquial adjective to mean 'excellent' or 'the best.'
