This is the OG 'same vibes.' Before we had 'relate,' we had 'Gaya mo ako!' (You're just like me!). It's the word you use when you see someone wearing the same Uniqlo shirt as you, or when your friend's love life is as much of a mess as yours.
From Sanskrit 'gaya' (manner, way).
Often used with 'ng' or 'ni' to introduce the object of comparison (e.g., gaya ng, gaya ni). Can also function as an adverb.
🇵🇭 Ang boses niya ay gaya ng sa isang anghel.
