FIL: Ang eksaktong oras o panahon ng tanghali, karaniwang tumutukoy sa alas-dose ng tanghali.
EN: noontime, midday
That magical hour when your brain cells officially check out for lunch. It's when the sun is at its most savage, your stomach starts rumbling louder than the office AC, and the most important question of the day is 'Saan tayo kakain?' Peak traffic, peak heat, peak gutom.
From ka- + tanghali (noon) + -an.
ROOT MEANING: noon, midday
Katanghalian specifically refers to the peak of noon, around 12 PM. Tanghali is more general (e.g., 11 AM to 1 PM).
