FIL: Nagpapakita ng malalim na pananampalataya at paggalang sa Diyos.
EN: godly, pious, God-fearing
Describes a person who's genuinely religious and lives by it. Your lola who goes to church every single day, your officemate who prays before eating their baon, or a politician who actually lives up to the "maka-Diyos, makabayan, makatao" motto. It's about walking the talk of faith.
From `maka-` (pro-, in favor of) + `Diyos` (God).
The "D" in Diyos is often capitalized. It's one of the core values in the Philippine national motto.
