EN: inheritance; heritage
This is the stuff you get when your lolo or lola passes on. It could be a plot of land in the province, the old family recipe for adobo, or, if you're lucky, their Netflix password. It's not just about money; it can also be a physical trait, like 'Pinagmanahan ko ang ilong ng tatay ko.' (I inherited my dad's nose.) It's the original 'pasalo.'
From Malay 'mana'.
Can refer to material wealth, physical traits, or abstract qualities.
