EN: pneumonia
This is that serious lung sickness that your lola always warns you about when you go out with wet hair or sleep in front of the electric fan. "Magkaka-pulmunya ka!" It's the leveled-up version of a bad cold or flu, and you definitely need a doctor for it. Not to be confused with 'pulmon', which is just the Spanish word for lung.
From Spanish 'pulmonía'.
A medical term commonly used in households. The formal medical term is 'niyumonya' from English 'pneumonia', but 'pulmunya' is very widespread.
