FIL: Isang tao na laging sumusunod o kasama ng iba saan man magpunta, na tila ba ay isang buntot.
EN: Tag-along, someone in tow
Your 'buntis' (buntot na laging sumusunod). It's your younger sibling who won't leave you alone with your friends, the chismosa officemate who follows you to the pantry, or that one friend in the 'barkada' who's always just... there.
From the prefix `ka-` (denoting a companion or relationship) and `buntot` (tail).
Often used colloquially and can have a slightly teasing or annoyed connotation.
