EN: question
The thing you have a million of during a meeting that could've been an email. It's the classic "Saan tayo kakain?" that never gets a straight answer. It's the "Mahal mo pa ba ako?" that you're afraid to ask. A **tanong** is the start of all 'chismis', all knowledge, and all complicated relationships.
The verb form is 'magtanong' (to ask). The more formal noun is 'katanungan'.
