FIL: Isang pangatnig na nagpapahayag ng dahilan o katuwiran, kadalasang may pahiwatig ng pagkadismaya, paghamak, o pagbibigay-katwiran sa isang hindi kanais-nais na sitwasyon.
EN: because
This is the "because" you use when you're about to throw shade or make an excuse. It's not a neutral "kasi" or "dahil." It's the "because" that comes with a side of judgment. "Late na naman siya, palibhasa puyat sa kaka-ML." See? It's got attitude. It's the conjunction equivalent of an eye-roll.
From 'pa-' + 'libhasa' (to be accustomed to something, often negative).
Carries a slightly critical or judgmental tone compared to 'dahil' or 'sapagkat'.
