EN: ironing board
The stage where your wrinkled, "give up na ako sa life" clothes get a glow-up. It's the silent partner of the plantsa (flat iron). Without it, you're either ironing on the floor (risking your back) or on a bed (risking your mattress). It's the unsung hero of looking presentable for your Zoom meeting.
From paN- (becomes pam-) + plantsa + -han. 'Plantsa' is from Spanish 'plancha' (iron).
ROOT MEANING: clothes iron
The -han suffix here denotes a place or tool for the action of the root word.
