FIL: Maging sanhi ng paggaling mula sa sakit o pagbuti ng isang kalagayan.
EN: to cause recovery/improvement
This is the verb for whatever makes you feel better. It could be the paracetamol for your headache, a bowl of 'lugaw' when you're sick, or just getting a good night's sleep after a stressful week. 'Inom ka ng gamot, 'yan ang ikagagaling mo.' (Take your medicine, that will cause your recovery.)
From 'i-' (causative prefix) + 'ka-' (causative prefix) + 'galing' (recovery from sickness).
ROOT MEANING: from, came from
Specifically refers to recovery from illness or the improvement of a negative condition. Not to be confused with the root 'galing' which means excellence.
