FIL: Isang kalagayan o paraan na mainam, mahusay, o wasto; walang kapintasan o pagkukulang.
EN: good; well; fine; thorough
"Maigi" is "mabuti" with a college degree. It's not just good, it's *thoroughly* good. When your mom tells you to clean your room "nang maigi," she means she better not find a single alikabok. It implies care, attention to detail, and a higher standard. "Okay ka lang?" "Maigi naman." means you're genuinely fine, not just pretending.
Can be used as an adjective (maiging tao - a good person) or an adverb (mag-aral nang maigi - study well). Often interchangeable with 'mabuti' but can imply a greater degree of quality or thoroughness.
