Basically, 'The North.' For people in Manila, this is anywhere from QC to Baguio to Ilocos. 'Taga-**kahilagaan** ako' (I'm from the north). It's where the air (supposedly) gets cooler and the traffic... well, the traffic is still traffic. The opposite of 'katimugan' (the south).
From `ka-`...`-an` (denoting a region or area) around `hilaga` (north).
ROOT MEANING: north
Used to refer to the direction or a region in the north. 'Hilaga' is the direction, 'kahilagaan' is the northern region.
