The magic word you say after someone gives you food, holds the door, or gives you their seat on the MRT. It's the minimum payment for your friend who listened to your rants for 3 hours. Short, sweet, and a basic requirement for being a decent human being.
From Arabic 'salāma' (سلامة), meaning 'safety, security, well-being', which entered Tagalog through Malay.
The most common way to express gratitude. Can be intensified as 'Maraming salamat' (Many thanks).
