FIL: Isang mensahe, senyas, o bagay na nagsisilbing panggising sa alaala tungkol sa isang bagay na dapat gawin o tandaan.
EN: reminder; notice
Your phone notification, the sticky note on your monitor, or your mom shouting "Magdala ka ng payong!" (Bring an umbrella!) before you leave. These are all forms of 'paalala'. It's the "friendly reminder" in a work email that's not actually friendly and means "do this now." It's also the "Babala" (warning) signs that serve as a 'paalala' not to do something stupid.
From `pa-` (causative prefix) + `alala` (remember). Literally, "something that causes remembering".
Very common in both formal (e.g., public announcements) and informal contexts.
