The vibe you get from 'Marites' when she's telling you the latest chismis. You know it's probably 90% exaggeration, but her delivery is so convincing it **tila totoo**. Also applies to that 'work-from-home' job offer that sounds too good to be true.
Combination of 'tila' (seems) and 'totoo' (true).
Used to express doubt or skepticism while acknowledging that something appears authentic on the surface.
