EN: heads (of a coin)
This is the "heads" in your "heads or tails" game, but Filipino style: "kara o krus?" It's the deciding factor for who pays for lunch, who gets the last piece of pizza, or who has to do the unang sampa sa presentation. A tiny piece of metal holding immense power.
From Spanish 'cara' meaning 'face'.
Almost exclusively used in the phrase "kara o krus" for flipping a coin.
