EN: malicious; with malice
When someone gives you a compliment that feels like an insult ('Wow, ang taba mo ngayon, good health ah!'). That's a comment na 'may-malisya'. It's the green-minded tito's joke that isn't really funny, or a co-worker's 'helpful' suggestion that's actually designed to make you look bad. It's the hidden 'daga sa dibdib'.
From `may` (to have) + `malisya` (malice, from Spanish 'malicia').
Describes actions, words, or thoughts that have a hidden, negative intent.
