EN: Straight; Upright
The opposite of your scoliosis. It's how your lola tells you to sit. It can also mean being on the 'straight and narrow' path, as in not being corrupt or doing anything shady. The 'daang matuwid' everyone talks about but is harder to find than a parking spot in Greenhills during Christmas.
Often used to describe physical posture or moral character. While it can mean 'straight' like a line, 'diretso' is more common for that. 'Tuwid' is better for posture and morality.
