“isang kahig, isang tuka”

bukas ang isip

open-minded

balat-kalabaw

thick-skinned, not easily hurt

nasa huli ang pagsisisi

regret comes too late

Magdilang-anghel ka sana

I hope what you said comes true.

mabigat ang loob

reluctant, heavy-hearted

matalas ang isip

sharp-minded

kung may tiyaga, may nilaga

if you persevere, you will get results

Itaga mo sa bato

Mark my words; I promise it will happen.
