FIL: Minamahal nang lubos; ang taong pinag-uukulan ng matinding pagmamahal o pagtingin. Ginagamit din bilang pandiwa na nangangahulugang 'minamahal'.
EN: beloved, cherished, darling
This is some next-level 'lodi' or 'crush'. It's what your lolo called your lola in his harana days. If you call someone your 'ginigiliw,' you're not just 'in a relationship,' you're in a full-blown kundiman love song. It's the OG term for 'bae.'
ROOT MEANING: darling, beloved; affection
Often found in classic songs, poems, and formal declarations of love. 'Ginigiliw kita' means 'I cherish you' or 'I adore you'. It can be used as an adjective (aking ginigiliw - my beloved) or a verb (siya ay ginigiliw ng lahat - he is loved by all).
🇵🇭 Ikaw ang aking ginigiliw, O aking sinta.
🇺🇸 You are my beloved, oh my love.
🇵🇭 Siya ay ginigiliw ng kanyang mga lolo at lola dahil sa kanyang kabaitan.
🇺🇸 She is cherished by her grandparents because of her kindness.
