FIL: Isang lugar kung saan kumakain ang mga tao, tulad ng restawran o karinderya. Maaari ring tumukoy sa mga gamit sa pagkain tulad ng plato, kutsara, at tinidor.
EN: eatery; dining place; dining set
This can be two things. 1) The place where you eat, from the fancy resto in BGC to the turo-turo stall in the palengke. 2) The actual plates, spoons, and forks you use. So when your mom says 'Ilabas mo ang pagkainan,' she could mean 'Set the table' or 'Let's go to the eatery,' depending on her tone and if she's holding her purse.
From `pag-` + `kain` + `-an` (denoting a place or object used for the action).
ROOT MEANING: act of eating; a meal
