EN: carpentry shop; woodworking shop
The magical place where wood goes to die and be reborn as a chair, table, or that door you always slam when you're angry. Smells like sawdust and sweat. The natural habitat of a 'karpintero'.
From Spanish "carpintería" (carpentry, carpenter's shop).
ROOT MEANING: carpenter
The spelling 'karpinteria' is also used but 'karpinteriya' follows Tagalog orthography more closely.
