EN: earring
An old-school word for earrings, especially the hoop or ring type ('argolla'). Think of your lola's classic gold earrings. It's something that hangs on you, kinda like your responsibilities, but way more fashionable.
'Hikaw' is the more common term for earring today. 'Pakaw' is still used, especially for traditional or hoop-style earrings.
