EN: poet
The OG hugot master. Before we had long, dramatic Facebook posts, we had the manunula. They can turn anything—from a traffic jam in EDSA to a heartbreak—into a work of art with meter and rhyme. They find beauty in the mundane and can make you feel things with just a few well-chosen words. The spoken word artists in coffee shops? They are the modern-day manunula.
From `man-` (doer prefix) + `tula` (poem).
ROOT MEANING: poem
