/ha-LAK-hak/
FIL: Isang malakas at maligayang tawa na maririnig nang malinaw.
EN: guffaw; loud laugh
This is not your polite "hehe" or your corporate "haha" in an email. This is the full-bodied, can't-breathe, tears-in-your-eyes, "hampasin-mo-yung-katabi-mo" kind of laugh you let out when your friend tells a killer joke or trips over nothing. It's the sound of pure, unadulterated "chismis" sessions with the barkada.
Onomatopoeic origin.
Describes a very specific, loud, and hearty laugh. The verb form is 'humalakhak'.
