EN: sharpness, acuteness
This is the 'edge' of your kutsilyo that makes slicing liempo a breeze. It's also the 'edge' in your brain that helps you get the punchline of a joke before everyone else. Yung **talas** ng isip mo, parang chismis sa office, ang bilis kumalat!
From Proto-Malayo-Polynesian *talsəm, meaning 'sharp' or 'pointed'.
Can refer to both physical sharpness (like a knife) and mental acuity (like a sharp mind).
