EN: change (money)
That moment of suspense at the *tindahan* when you give a ₱1000 bill for a piece of candy. The *tindera's* "may barya ka?" is the national anthem of small businesses. The **sukli** is your trophy for surviving the awkward wait. "Keep the change" is a foreign concept; we wait for that last peso.
🇵🇭 Ate, paki-bilang po ng sukli kung tama.
🇺🇸 Miss, please count the change to see if it's correct.
🇵🇭 Wala akong baon bukas dahil kinuha mo ang buong sukli.
🇺🇸 I don't have any allowance for tomorrow because you took all the change.
