Interesting to Know: Pinoy Old Expressions (12)

These are some words that we used to hear from our older relatives. I still hear them but not so often. Sometimes, I uttered some of them myself…. familiar with the words but not necessarily their true meanings. Most of the time, these words tickle my imagination… what might be their true meaning and origins.

I made this compilation… to remind me of these familiar words! I also requested help from my friends. Thank you to all who have contributed đź’•
