FIL: Isang halaga ng pera na inilalagay o ipinagkakatiwala sa isang tao, bangko, o institusyon bilang paunang bayad, garantiya, o piyansa.
EN: deposit, down payment; bail
It's that money you put down to show you're serious. Like the security deposit for your condo, the down payment for that new phone you're getting on installment, or the money you give to get your tito out of jail (piyansa). It’s a promise in the form of cash.
While it can mean bail ('piyansa'), it is more commonly used for commercial or rental deposits.
