FIL: Nasa tamang kalagayan, malinis, organisado, o walang anumang gusot o gulo.
EN: orderly, neat, proper, in good condition
Your life when you finally do your laundry, clean your room, and have more than 50 pesos in your wallet before payday. It's the opposite of 'gulo', the state of your friend's love life. 'Ayusin mo buhay mo!' is the command, and 'maayos' is the goal. Can refer to a person ('maayos kausap' - sensible), a place ('maayos na bahay' - tidy house), or a situation ('sana maging maayos na ang lahat' - hope everything will be alright).
From the prefix 'ma-' (indicating a quality) + 'ayos' (order, arrangement).
ROOT MEANING: order; arrangement; appearance
A very versatile adjective. 'Maayos na pagkain' means a proper meal. 'Maayos ang isip' means clear-headed or sane.
