Tumutukoy sa isang tao na walang anumang ugnayang pampamilya o relasyon sa dugo sa isa pang tao.
/KI-ta/
FIL: Ang kabuuang halaga ng salapi o anumang pakinabang na natanggap mula sa trabaho, negosyo, o pamumuhunan.
EN: earnings
The reason why we work from 9 to 5 (or graveyard shift). It's the 'sahod', the 'sweldo', the fruit of your 'pagod'. It's what you check on your pay slip before you plan your next Shopee or Lazada 'budol'. The bigger the 'kita', the more milk tea you can afford.
Possibly from Malay 'kita' (see, view), in the sense of 'what one sees' from their labor.
Pronounced with stress on the first syllable /KI-ta/, unlike the pronoun 'kita' which is /ki-TA/.
