EN: fourteen
The number of days you have to wait for your sahod after the 15th. It's also the age when you thought you were an adult but your parents still treated you like a kid.
From "labi" (excess, remainder) + "-ng" + "apat" (four), literally "excess of ten by four".
Can be written as "labing-apat" or "labing apat". The hyphenated form is more common in formal writing. The Spanish-derived "katorse" is also used.
