FIL: Isang uri ng salamin na may kulay, na ginagamit upang bawasan ang tindi ng liwanag o para sa palamuti. Karaniwang tumutukoy sa salamin sa mata na pananggalang sa araw.
EN: sunglasses; colored glass
Literally 'colored glass.' This is what you wear to look cool, mysterious, or to hide the fact that you only got three hours of sleep. The OG term for sunglasses before 'shades' became a thing. Also refers to the colored glass panes in old churches or your lola's house.
From Tagalog 'salamin' and Spanish 'de color' (of color).
ROOT MEANING: mirror; glass
While it can mean any colored glass, it most commonly refers to sunglasses.
🇵🇭 Huwag kalimutang magsuot ng salaming de-kolor kapag matindi ang sikat ng araw.
🇺🇸 Don't forget to wear sunglasses when the sun is intense.
