EN: anyway, after all, in any case
The official word for when you're trying to justify an impulse buy. 'Sige na, bilhin ko na 'to. Tutal, sweldo naman bukas.' (Okay, I'll buy this. After all, it's payday tomorrow.) It's the verbal shrug that says 'might as well.'
From Spanish 'total' (total, in sum).
Used to connect clauses, often to provide a reason or justification for a preceding or subsequent statement.
