EN: school
Ah, the `paaralan`. A building that holds your best memories (first crush, barkada moments) and worst nightmares (surprise quizzes, thesis defense). It's a place you couldn't wait to leave, and now you kinda miss it. Also known as "The Building Where My Baon Disappeared."
From pa- (causative prefix) + aral (study) + -an (locative suffix), literally "a place for studying".
ROOT MEANING: lesson, moral, study
A general term for any educational institution, from elementary to university. 'Eskwelahan' is a common synonym.
