/mang-KOK/
FIL: Isang malalim na sisidlan na karaniwang bilog, ginagamit para sa mga pagkaing may sabaw tulad ng sopas, sinigang, o lugaw.
EN: bowl
The official vessel for anything with sabaw. It's the throne for sinigang, the kingdom of lugaw, and the holy grail for your late-night instant noodles. A plate is for presentation, but a **mangkok** is for serious, get-down-to-business eating. It's a hug in ceramic form.
Likely from Hokkien 碗 (buan, 'bowl') + 鈷 (koo, 'cup'), evolving into 'mangkok'.
A fundamental piece of kitchenware in any Filipino household.
