FIL: Tumutukoy sa kalagayan ng boses na paos, magaspang, o hirap lumabas dahil sa pamamaga ng lalamunan o labis na paggamit nito.
EN: hoarse; husky (voice)
This is the official voice of call center agents after a 12-hour shift, KTV champions the morning after, and teachers at the end of the school week. Your voice sounds like a rusty gate hinge, and every word is a struggle. It's when you try to say 'good morning' but what comes out is a low, gravelly croak that scares small children. The cure? Salabat, water, and shutting up for a while.
Synonymous with 'paos'. 'Malat' is very common in everyday conversation.
