EN: whore, prostitute; (as an exclamation) bitch, damn
The ultimate Filipino curse word. It's a multi-tool. Stub your toe? 'Puta!' Miss your jeep? 'Puta!' Friend betrays you? 'Puta ka!' It has layers, like an onion of rage and frustration. While its original meaning is 'prostitute,' 99% of the time it's just a verbal punctuation mark for extreme emotions. Handle with care, not for your lola's ears.
Mula sa Espanyol na "puta", na nangangahulugang "prostitute".
A highly offensive and vulgar word. Its use as an exclamation is extremely common but still considered coarse. The full phrase "putang ina mo" is one of the most offensive expressions in Tagalog.
🇵🇭 Sa isang madilim na eskinita, may mga babaeng puta na naghihintay ng kliyente.
