FIL: Ang palihim na pagkuha ng isang bagay na may maliit na halaga; pagnanakaw nang tingi-tingi.
EN: To pilfer; to filch
This is low-level stealing. It’s not a full-on bank heist; it's taking a pen from the office, sneaking a piece of chocolate from your sibling's stash, or getting 'extra' suka from the Mang Inasal condiment station. It's the 'nawala lang, hindi kinuha' kind of theft.
Refers to petty theft, often done sneakily and for small items.
