EN: blood relative
This is the 'flesh and blood' connection. Your 'karugo' are the people you're related to by blood, not just by choice or Wi-Fi password sharing. It's the ultimate 'kadugo' or 'kapamilya' label, the one you can't unfriend on Facebook.
From 'ka-' (denoting relationship) + 'dugo' (blood).
'Kadugo' is a more common variant. Can be used as an adjective ('karugo niya') or a noun ('isang karugo').
