FIL: Isang lugar na may lilim o proteksyon laban sa sikat ng araw o ulan.
EN: shady, sheltered
That perfect spot under a big mango tree to escape the scorching summer heat, or the covered court where you can still play basketball even when it's raining. It's the opposite of being 'bilad sa araw'. Your go-to tambayan spot when the sun is out for revenge.
From "ma-" (prefix indicating 'having the quality of') + "silong" (shade, area underneath).
ROOT MEANING: space underneath a house
Often refers to a physical space providing cover from the elements.
