EN: smudge of dirt on the face
That little smudge of chocolate on a kid's cheek, the pen mark you accidentally got on your nose, or the charcoal on your face after a barbecue. It's the kind of dirt your mom would wet her thumb with her saliva to wipe off your face when you were a kid. It's not full-on 'dugyot' (filthy), just a cute or clumsy little spot of dirt. "May dusing ka sa pisngi."
Specifically refers to a small amount of dirt or a stain on the face.
