EN: seasonal
This is why you can't get the perfect, sweet mangoes in December. It's why 'Bibingka' and 'Puto Bumbong' suddenly appear everywhere when the '-ber' months hit. It's the law of the palengke and the tiangge. Some things are just not available 24/7, 365 days a year. They're special because they're may-sapanahon.
From "may" (has) + "sa-" (in/at) + "panahon" (time, season).
ROOT MEANING: time
A more formal or literary way to say "seasonal". "Pana-panahon" is a more common conversational equivalent.
