EN: dregs; sediment; residue
The stuff at the bottom of your cup of barako coffee that you try to avoid drinking. Figuratively, it refers to the dregs of society, the 'scum', or the leftover, unwanted bits of something. It's the gritty reality check at the bottom of your glass.
Used both for literal sediments and as a powerful metaphor for social outcasts or undesirable elements.
