EN: wedding banns, marriage banns
This is the OG relationship status update, church edition. Before you can get married in a Catholic church, they announce your upcoming wedding for three straight Sundays. It's basically a public "speak now or forever hold your peace" to check if anyone has a valid objection, like if the groom is secretly already married. It's the tawag sa kasal.
A compound phrase from "tawag" (call) and "kasal" (wedding).
Primarily used in the context of Catholic wedding preparations in the Philippines.
