EN: saleswoman
She's the queen of the `tindahan`, the maestra of the `palengke`. She knows the price of everything, can give you a "suki" discount, and probably knows more about your family than your own Tita. From the sari-sari store owner to the department store saleslady, she is the **tindera**.
From Spanish `tendera` (female shopkeeper).
ROOT MEANING: merchandise
The female form for a vendor or seller.
🇵🇭 "Magkano po ito, ate?" tanong ko sa tindera.
🇺🇸 "How much is this, miss?" I asked the saleswoman.
