FIL: Isang uri ng kulisap na karaniwang may mabalahibong katawan, kahawig ng paruparo, at naaakit sa liwanag, lalo na sa gabi.
EN: moth, gnat
That little insect that's hopelessly attracted to any light source, just like you to your crush's IG stories. They're the uninvited guests at your late-night study session, crashing into your lamp. Sila 'yung patay na patay sa ilaw.
Famously referenced in a fable told by Jose Rizal's mother, about a young moth that flew too close to a flame.
