EN: bow and arrow; arrow
The weapon of choice before guns were a thing. Think Katniss Everdeen, Hawkeye, or Lapu-Lapu's crew. It's also a classic hugot line: "Para kang **pana**, tinamaan ako sa'yo."
From Malay 'panah' (bow, arrow).
While technically 'pana' refers to the whole set (bow and arrow), it's often used to refer to just the arrow ('palaso'). The bow itself is 'busog'.
