#14. "Alam Na This"
This term came from the Tagalog word alam, which means known in English.
So, this Tagalog slang word basically means you and the people around you share a common knowledge about something.
This shows that just looking at each other without saying anything, Filipinos already know what will happen.
Example Sentence: It’s payday. We already know what’s gonna happen. (May sahod na! Alam na this.)
