A baby duck. The star of every 'Make Way for Ducklings' story. They're cute, fluffy, and follow their mom in a perfect line, unlike you and your siblings trying to navigate a crowded mall.
Combination of "sisiw" (chick, young bird) and "pato" (duck).
ROOT MEANING: chick (young chicken)
'Bibe' is another common word for duck, so 'sisiw na bibe' is also correct and frequently used.

🇵🇭 Mukha kang basang sisiw na pato!
