FIL: Isang silid kung saan isinasagawa ang mga gawaing pang-opisina o pagtanggap ng mga kliyente at bisita.
EN: office
The formal term for an office, which sounds way more grand than the cubicle farm you're actually in. It’s where you receive guests, clients, or a sermon from your boss. In a home context, it’s the room with the big desk that everyone else uses as a dumping ground.
Compound word from "silid" (room) and "tanggapan" (office/reception, from root 'tanggap').
ROOT MEANING: accepted, received
'Opisina' is more common in everyday speech. 'Silid-tanggapan' can also specifically mean a reception room.
