EN: classmate
The person you share notes with, group projects with, and secretly compete with for the top spot. They are your first allies and rivals. Years later, you'll see them on Facebook and think, "Uy, classmate ko 'to dati!" before checking if their life is more or less successful than yours.
From English 'classmate'. A direct loanword that has been fully adopted.
Used interchangeably with the native Tagalog term 'kaklase'.
