FIL: Ang gusali o partikular na lugar kung saan ipinapalabas ang mga pelikula para sa panonood ng publiko.
EN: movie theater, cinema
The actual building. The place you go for the 'sine'. The battleground where you decide between cheese, sour cream, or BBQ-flavored popcorn. It's the physical location for your movie date, from the giant multiplexes in the mall to the old, standalone theaters that smell like history (and maybe dust).
From 'sine' + '-han' (suffix indicating place). Literally 'a place for movies.'
ROOT MEANING: cinema, movie, film
Specifically refers to the movie theater building, distinguishing it from 'sine' which can also mean the movie itself.
🇵🇭 Magkita tayo sa labas ng sinehan bago magsimula ang pelikula.
