FIL: Tumutukoy sa isang bagay na nasa kabilang dako, karaniwang sa kabilang panig ng dagat; maaari ring mangahulugang higit pa, mas malaki, o karagdagan.
EN: further; greater; overseas
This is a fancy word you use when you want to sound smart. Instead of saying 'more effort,' you say '**ibayong** pagsisikap.' It's like adding 'extra' or 'next-level' to something. '**Ibayong** dagat' is the classic term for 'overseas,' where your OFW relatives are.
From `ibayo` (the other side, across) + `-ng` (linker).
Often used in formal contexts like news reports or speeches. 'Ibayong-dagat' is a common compound word.
