EN: knowledgeable; aware; informed
That feeling when you've read all the chismis on social media and someone tries to tell you 'the news.' You hit them with the, 'Oo, I know. May-kabatiran na ako diyan.' You're in the loop, you're informed, you're not living under a rock.
From "may" (has/with) + "kabatiran" (knowledge/awareness), from the root word "batid" (known).
ROOT MEANING: known; aware
A formal way to say someone is knowledgeable or aware. More formal than 'maalam' or 'informado'.
