EN: how much; how (+ adjective)
The ultimate "How much?" question. From asking the price of chichirya sa tindahan ("Gaano po ito?") to asking your ex "Gaano ba kasakit?" after seeing their new IG story. It's the interrogative word for when you need to measure something, whether it's the length of a rope or the depth of your *feels*.
Often used with adjectives, like "gaano kalaki" (how big), "gaano kalayo" (how far), or "gaano kahalaga" (how important).
