EN: motivated, enthusiastic, having an appetite
That feeling when you're super pumped to do something, whether it's to work, to work out, or to attack a buffet. 'Walang preno, ganado!' Kapag may bonus, biglang ganado mag-trabaho. Kapag may bagong chismis, ganado makinig.
From Spanish 'ganado' (won/gained), but its meaning in Filipino is directly influenced by 'gana' (appetite, desire), also from Spanish.
Can refer to an appetite for food or an enthusiasm for an activity.
