FIL: Isang tao na kulang sa paninindigan, madaling sumuko sa panggigipit, at walang sariling desisyon o prinsipyo.
EN: spineless person; person without principles
Literally 'a person without a spine.' This is your friend who agrees with everyone to avoid conflict, or a politician who changes their stance depending on who's funding them. They can't stand up for themselves or for what's right. Sila yung 'yes man' na kahit mali, go lang nang go.
From `tao` (person) + `walang` (without) + `gulugod` (spine). Idiomatic expression.
ROOT MEANING: spine; backbone
A strong insult, questioning someone's character and integrity.
🇵🇭 Huwag kang maging taong walang-gulugod; panindigan mo ang iyong mga sinabi.
🇺🇸 Don't be a spineless person; stand by what you said.
