EN: gums
Your teeth's best friend and support system. It's what gets angry and bleeds when you haven't flossed since 2019. It's the pink frame for your pearly whites. When your dentist says 'Your gums look a little inflamed,' they're talking about your ngilngil.
A less common but more specific term for 'gums' than the Spanish-derived 'gilagid'.
