EN: burial, funeral
The final 'despedida.' It's the event where everyone wears black or white, there's a lot of crying, and your tita is judging everyone's level of grief. It's the culmination of the 'burol' (wake), followed by a slow-moving convoy that causes traffic, and ends with everyone throwing flowers and a handful of soil, saying their last goodbyes.
The act of burying. The place is 'libingan'. The verb is 'ilibing'.
