EN: two-faced, insincere, fake
The person who's super nice to your face but talks trash behind your back. They're the 'frenemy' in your office or barkada. You know, the one who'll praise your new haircut then screenshot your photo for the group chat with the caption 'ano na naman 'to?' Classic backstabber.
From English 'plastic', used metaphorically to mean artificial or not genuine.
A very common colloquial term to describe insincerity. Can also be used as a noun to refer to a person ('Huwag kang maniwala diyan, plastik 'yan.').
