FIL: Ang pinakadulong bahagi ng isang bagay, lugar, o pila; ang kinalalagyan ng panghuli.
EN: the rear; the end part
This is the worst spot to be in when lining up for concert tickets or the MRT during rush hour. It's the back of the line, the tail end, the "pwetan" of the jeep. If someone tells you "sa hulihan ka," you know you've got a long wait ahead.
From "huli" (last) + "-an" suffix, indicating location.
ROOT MEANING: late; last; final
Distinct from "huli" (last/late). "Hulihan" refers to the rear position or the very end of a physical sequence.
🇵🇭 Pumila ka sa hulihan.
🇺🇸 Get in line at the rear.
🇵🇭 Ang lagda ng may-akda ay matatagpuan sa hulihan ng aklat.
