FIL: Isang pang-abay na nagpapahayag ng pagtindi o pag-igting ng isang katangian, kalagayan, o kilos.
EN: more; even more; especially
This is the ultimate 'up-size' word. Your crush is cute? Lalo siyang gumaganda 'pag ngumingiti. The traffic is bad? Lalo pang bumagal nung umulan. It's the word you use when you think things can't get any more intense, but life says, 'Hold my beer.'
Often appears as 'lalong' which is a contraction of 'lalo na'. It's used to intensify an adjective or another adverb that follows it, e.g., 'lalong malayo' (even farther). The phrase 'lalo't lalo' means 'especially' or 'all the more so'. 'Lalong pasamain' means 'to make it even worse'.
