FIL: Isang pagpapahayag na hindi sapat ang mga salita upang ilarawan ang isang damdamin, karanasan, o katotohanan.
EN: more than words can say; beyond words
That feeling when you see your food finally arriving at the restaurant. Or when your crush messages you first. It's a feeling so intense, so pure, that "masaya" or "happy" just doesn't cut it. It's the "I love you 3000" of Tagalog expressions.
From "labis" (excess, beyond) + "sa" (to/in) + "mga" (plural marker) + "salita" (words).
This phrase is more poetic or literary than colloquial. A more common way to express this is "hindi kayang ipaliwanag ng mga salita" (cannot be explained by words).
🇵🇭 Ang pagmamahal ng isang ina ay labis sa mga salita.
🇺🇸 A mother's love is beyond words.
🇵🇭 Ang pasasalamat ko sa iyo ay labis sa mga salita.
🇺🇸 My gratitude for you is more than words can say.
