EN: having the same sound; rhyming
Yung 'puso' at 'suso' o 'mahal' at 'banal'. They are magkatunog. It's the secret sauce of every OPM love song, Pinoy rap battle, and your tita's cheesy poetry for the family reunion. It's what makes words sound like they're meant for each other.
From 'magka-' + 'tunog' (sound).
Primarily refers to rhyming words (a synonym of magkatugma) but can also describe any two things that sound alike, like two different car horns.
