FIL: Isang tradisyonal na larong pambata kung saan lumulukso ang isa o higit pang manlalaro sa ibabaw ng isang lubid na pinaiikot.
EN: jump rope (the game)
The OG Filipino cardio workout before fitness gyms were a thing. This is the classic street game where two people swing a rope and you jump in the middle, trying not to get tripped up. The chant 'Mother, mother, I am sick...' is its unofficial theme song.
From 'lukso' (jump) + 'na' (linker) + 'lubid' (rope).
Can refer to the game itself or the act of playing it.
