EN: catfish
The fish, not the person pretending to be someone else online (though the 'whiskers' kinda look like a fake mustache, lol). This is the slippery, whiskered fish you often find grilled or fried in dampa-style restaurants. A staple in many provincial cuisines.
From Proto-Malayo-Polynesian *hitu.
Refers to the freshwater fish *Clarias batrachus*.
🇵🇭 Masarap ang inihaw na hito na may sawsawang toyo't kalamansi.
🇺🇸 Grilled catfish is delicious with a soy sauce and calamansi dip.
🇵🇭 Mahirap hulihin ang hito dahil madulas ito.
🇺🇸 Catfish are hard to catch because they are slippery.
