That feeling you get when you see your friend's travel photos on IG while you're stuck in traffic on EDSA. "Sana all" is the battle cry of the 'naiinggit'. It’s wanting what they have, whether it’s a new gadget, a jowa, or clear skin.
From `ma-` (potential verb prefix) + `inggit` (envy).
Often used in the form `naiinggit` (present tense) or as an infinitive.
