FIL: Anumang bagay na ginagamit upang takpan o sarhan ang isang butas, siwang, o puwang.
EN: plug, stopper, filling
That thing you use to stop a leak. Could be a cork for a bottle, the 'pasador' for a leaky roof, or even the lumpia you stuff in your mouth to stop yourself from saying something you'll regret. It's a filler, a plug, a temporary (or permanent) solution to a hole.
From `paN-` + `pasak`. `Pasak` means plug or wedge. The prefix `paN-` (`pam-` before 'p') indicates the tool or material used for the action.
ROOT MEANING: plug; stopper; cork
Can be literal (a physical plug) or figurative (a temporary substitute). See also 'pamasak-butas'.
