FIL: Ang karga o lakas na elektrikal na taglay ng isang bagay; maaari ding tumukoy sa anting, bisa, o enerhiya ng isang bagay sa metaporikal na paraan.
EN: electric charge, potency
The 'juice' in your phone's battery. Before power banks, this was a more magical concept, like the 'bisa' of an anting-anting. Now, it's the reason for our collective anxiety when the battery icon turns red. The root word for 'tablayan' (to charge).
While it technically means 'charge', it's less commonly used in everyday speech than 'karga'. It has a slightly more technical or literary feel.
