/VE-ri GI-ving/
FIL: Isang impormal na pariralang naglalarawan sa isang tao o bagay na labis-labis o sobra sa pagsisikap, na minsan ay may bahid ng pagiging hindi natural o pilit.
EN: trying too hard; over-the-top
Originally meant generous, but Gen Z and the beki community flipped it. Now, it means you're trying too hard. Yung outfit mo, 'very giving.' Yung pag-pose mo sa picture, 'very giving.' It's the side-eye comment for someone doing the absolute most. 'Girl, the five-minute dance number for a 15-second TikTok? That's very giving.'
Mula sa pariralang Ingles na 'very giving' na binigyan ng bagong, madalas na sarkastikong, kahulugan sa kontekstong Filipino slang, partikular sa kulturang beki at Gen Z.
Ang kahulugan ay lubos na nakadepende sa konteksto at tono. Maaaring maging papuri (sincere effort) o kritisismo (trying too hard).
🇵🇭 Tingnan mo ang pa-production number niya sa birthday niya, very giving!
🇺🇸 Look at her production number for her birthday, she's giving it her all! (can be sarcastic)
🇵🇭 Very giving naman ang outfit mo para sa isang mabilis na pagtakbo sa grocery.
🇺🇸 Your outfit is a bit much for a quick grocery run.
