EN: Lent (common misspelling)
This is how many people mistakenly spell or say 'Kuwaresma' (Lent). It sounds a bit like 'karisma' (charisma), but it has nothing to do with being charming. It's just a common slip of the tongue or typo. If you see this written down, they mean Lent, they just need a little help from spellcheck.
Variant spelling of Spanish 'Cuaresma'. The phonological shift from /e/ to /i/ is common in Tagalog.
Considered a non-standard or incorrect spelling of 'Kuwaresma,' but is widely understood.
