The vibe at your tita's house kapag may birthday. You can smell the Pinoy spaghetti from a block away, hear the karaoke machine blasting Aegis songs, and see your cousins playing on the street. 'May-kasiyahan' means there's food, fun, and probably a lot of chismis.
From `may` (to have) + `kasiyahan` (celebration, joy).
ROOT MEANING: happy, joyful
Describes a state or location, e.g., 'May-kasiyahan sa kapitbahay' (The neighbor is having a party).
