EN: cabinet
This word has two major personalities. First, it's the squad of the President—the department secretaries who form the government's "management team." Second, it's that piece of furniture in your lola's house where she keeps the fancy plates and glasses that you're not allowed to touch, ever. Both are for keeping important things, whether it's state secrets or the *baso pang-bisita lang*.
From Spanish "gabinete".
The meaning is usually clear from the context (politics vs. furniture).
🇵🇭 Nagpulong ang Pangulo kasama ang kanyang gabinete upang talakayin ang krisis.
