FIL: Ang katangian o kalagayan ng pagiging kabilang sa isang partikular na lahi, angkan, o uri; ang likas na katangian na dala mula sa kapanganakan.
EN: racial identity; inherent nature
It's your "Pinoy Pride" DNA. It's the inherent traits you get from your ancestors – the color of your skin, the shape of your nose, and maybe even your unexplainable love for adobo and karaoke. It’s about your roots, your race, your heritage. When someone says, "Ganyan talaga ang pagkalahi namin," they're talking about the deep-seated traits and traditions passed down through their lineage.
From `pagka-` (state/nature of being) + `lahi` (race, lineage).
Can refer to race, ethnicity, or even breed (for animals).
