FIL: Isang uri ng paligsahan o palaro kung saan may mga kalahok na naglalaban-laban upang magkamit ng gantimpala o karangalan.
EN: contest, competition
This is the official term for any "patimpalak" you see in a fiesta, a noontime show, or even the office Christmas party. It's where your hidden talent for belting out Whitney Houston songs or your team's questionable dance moves finally get their moment in the spotlight. Winner gets a cash prize, the losers get "exposure".
From 'ka-' prefix + 'paligsahan' (a variant of ligsahan). 'ligsahan' itself is from 'ligsa' + '-han'.
Often used interchangeably with 'paligsahan' or 'kompetisyon'.
