意味
Referring to people from the labor sector.
文化的背景
The term is closely associated with the 'Masa' culture. Filipino politicians often try to project an 'anak-pawis' image to win votes, even if they are wealthy. May 1st (Labor Day) is the peak time for this phrase. It is used in banners and chants to unify different labor sectors. Social realist novels like 'Banaag at Sikat' use this concept to discuss the struggle between capital and labor. Younger Filipinos use the term to show solidarity with delivery riders and service workers during economic crises.
Use for Respect
When writing about workers, use 'anak-pawis' to sound more empathetic and culturally aware.
Not for Office Work
Don't use this for white-collar office jobs; it's specifically for manual labor.
