EN: to have lights installed; to be lit up
That moment when Meralco finally fixes the power outage and your whole barangay shouts for joy. Or when your sitio, which has been in the dark for decades, finally gets electricity. "Sa wakas, magkakailaw na rin kami!" It's a literal "let there be light" moment.
From `magka-` + `ilaw`, meaning to come to have light.
Used to denote the event or process of a place getting electric lighting, or for power to be restored after an outage.
