EN: sympathy, affinity, rapport
This isn't just 'pity' (awa). It's more like having good vibes or chemistry with someone. When you meet a new officemate and you just... click. That's simpatya. It's the opposite of having your 'santo not matching' (hindi magkasundo ang santo).
Mula sa Espanyol na "simpatía."
Often confused with 'awa' (pity), but 'simpatya' implies a sense of liking or positive connection, not just feeling sorry for someone.
