FIL: Isang parirala na nagpapahiwatig ng lokasyon sa hulihang bahagi o espasyo ng isang bagay. Ito ay halos kasingkahulugan ng "sa likod ng".
EN: at the back of, behind
This is the slightly more formal cousin of "sa likod ng." You'd use this when describing where you parked your car ("sa likuran ng mall") or where the "dirty kitchen" is located. It's less for emotional support and more for giving actual, physical directions.
Mula sa "sa" (at) + "likuran" (rear area, from 'likod') + "ng" (of).
Often interchangeable with "sa likod ng," but can sometimes imply a larger area at the back rather than just immediately behind.
