Tumutukoy sa isang tao na walang anumang ugnayang pampamilya o relasyon sa dugo sa isa pang tao.
/ka-a-NAK/
FIL: Isang tao na kabilang sa parehong pamilya o angkan; kamag-anak.
EN: relative, kin
The collective noun for your tito, tita, pinsan, lolo, and lola who will inevitably ask "May boyfriend/girlfriend ka na?" or "Kailan ka ikakasal?" at every family reunion. They are both your support system and your primary source of unsolicited advice.
From ka- (denoting relationship) + anak (child). Literally, "one of the same offspring/lineage".
A more general term for relative than 'kamag-anak', although they are largely synonymous.
