FIL: Isang pook o lugar kung saan matatagpuan ang maraming kamalig; isang malaking imbakan o koleksyon ng mga kamalig.
EN: a place with many barns; a large granary complex
This is like the subdivision or condo complex for kamaligs. It's not just one barn, but a whole area dedicated to them. Think of it as the industrial park for rice storage. The suffix '-an' in Tagalog often denotes a place where something is abundant.
From "kamalig" + suffix "-an".
ROOT MEANING: barn, granary, storehouse
Less common than 'kamalig' itself. Emphasizes a larger scale or collection.
