FIL: Naglalarawan sa isang lugar na malinis, walang sagabal, at may kaaya-ayang amoy; presko at hindi kulob.
EN: Clean-smelling, fresh, clear (of a place)
That feeling when you enter a room right after general cleaning. The air smells fresh, everything is in its proper place, and there's a sense of order. It's the opposite of a 'bodega' or your sibling's messy room. It's the scent of freshly washed laundry or a newly mopped floor.
ROOT MEANING: rustling sound; secret departure
A less common word, often replaced by 'malinis' or 'presko'. It specifically combines the idea of cleanliness with a fresh scent or clear atmosphere.
