EN: tile
This is the red, clay tile on your lola's ancestral house roof. The kind that looks like it's seen every typhoon since the Spanish era. When one breaks, it's a whole family project to replace it.
From Spanish "teja" (tile).
Primarily refers to clay roofing tiles, but can sometimes be used for floor tiles as well, though 'tiles' (the English word) is more common for the latter.
