뜻
Referring to a tidy living space.
문화적 배경
Filipinos will often spend hours cleaning before a guest arrives. It is a point of pride to offer a 'malinis na bahay' to visitors, even if the family lives simply. It is a common belief that cleaning the house before the clock strikes midnight on New Year's Eve ensures a fresh start and good fortune for the coming year. Even if the house is spotless, a host might say 'Pasensya na, madumi ang bahay' as a form of humility. The guest is expected to disagree and compliment the cleanliness. In rural areas, the community might help a neighbor clean or even move their entire house (the literal Bayanihan). A 'malinis na bahay' is a community effort.

You can say 'napakalinis na bahay' or 'sobrang linis na bahay'.
It is 'maduming bahay' (dirty house) or 'magulong bahay' (messy house).
It's a cultural trait of humility and high standards for hospitality.
Yes, but it means they are physically clean or have good hygiene, not that they are 'nice'.
