/na-RON/
FIL: Isang kolokyal na pinaikling anyo ng 'naroroon,' na nangangahulugang nasa malayong lugar na malayo sa nagsasalita at kausap.
EN: is there (colloquial)
This is the lazy, shortcut way of saying 'naroroon'. It's what you say when you're too tired to pronounce all the syllables. 'Asan si kuya?' '**Naron** sa kanto, bumibili ng yosi.' It’s fast, casual, and super common in everyday Pinoy street talk.
Colloquial contraction of 'naroroon'.
ROOT MEANING: there (far)
Strictly informal and conversational. You wouldn't write this in a formal paper, but you'd hear it constantly in the 'palengke' or while talking to a friend.

🇺🇸 Where did you put the umbrella? It's over there by the door.
