FIL: Isang maliit na lawa-lawaan o naipong tubig na hindi umaagos, karaniwang nabubuo pagkatapos ng ulan.
EN: puddle; small pool of stagnant water
That mini-swimming pool for ants and mosquitoes that appears on the street after it rains. It's the mortal enemy of your new white sneakers and the reason your mom yells 'dahan-dahan!' when a jeepney is about to pass.
Often associated with stagnant water and potential breeding grounds for mosquitoes, which is a public health concern in the Philippines.
