FIL: Isang uri ng metal na napakabihira, mahalaga, at may kulay pilak-puti, mas matibay at mas mabigat kaysa ginto.
EN: platinum
The final boss of precious metals. If gold is for the rich, Platino (platinum) is for the ultra-rich. It's what your credit card becomes when you've reached peak tito/tita of Manila status. It's rarer, denser, and more low-key expensive than gold.
From Spanish 'platino' (platinum).
This is the specific term for the metal platinum. Not to be confused with 'platina' (stage). Often spelled with a capital 'P' when referring to the chemical element, but lowercase is fine for general use.
