Curious Trivia

Bad Trip - slang for "disappointing endeavor"

Busted - used if light doesn't come anymore, but only in the Philippines, we use it when a boy is rejected by a girl.

Going Dutch ("Dutch pay please!") - When each person in a group pays for themselves, or in cheaper words, KKB (Kanya Kanyang Bayad)! Haha!

Gusto - this is an English term originated from the Latin word "gustus" meaning taste. Turns out that its second meaning is "liking".

Holdupper - We usually spell it as "holdap" or "holdaper". Apparently this term is only used in our country.

Hors d'oeuvre - other term for "outside of work". Basahin nyo ulit.

 

More of these trivias soon!
