FIL: Ang bahagi ng ilog kung saan ito ay bumubuhos at sumasanib sa dagat o sa isang mas malaking anyong-tubig.
EN: estuary, mouth of a river
Imagine a river's grand exit, its "mouth" opening up to the sea. It's the point where freshwater meets saltwater, like when your province-based tita meets your city-slicker friends for the first time. Medyo awkward, pero eventually, they mix.
From Malay 'suba'.
Often used in geographical contexts, especially in provinces with extensive river systems.
