FIL: Isang uri ng isdang-tabang na karaniwang kinakain at inaalagaan sa Pilipinas.
EN: tilapia
The workhorse of the Filipino dining table. Not as fancy as salmon, not as 'matinik' as bangus, but always there for you. Whether it's 'pritong tilapia', 'sinigang na tilapia', or 'inihaw na tilapia', it's the reliable, affordable ulam that gets the job done.
From New Latin, from an unrecorded African language name, possibly Tswana 'tlhapi' (fish).
Refers to the specific type of freshwater fish, a staple in Filipino cuisine.
