FIL: Isang parirala na nagpapahayag ng mas mababang bilang o dami kumpara sa isang naunang binanggit o inaasahan.
EN: even less, fewer
This is what you say when your sweldo comes, after taxes, SSS, PhilHealth, and Pag-IBIG have had their way with it. You thought it was small, but now it's higit na kakaunti. It's the feeling of getting a "large" iced coffee that's 90% ice. You're getting less than you thought you were, and even less than that.
Combination of 'higit na' (more) and 'kakaunti' (a few, little). The combination paradoxically means 'even fewer'.
A comparative phrase indicating a smaller quantity. It literally means "more few" but is understood as "even fewer" or "even less."
