Napeste - this is a term my cousin and I use whenever a couple of our family members or all of us get sick at the same time. Naratay - is a term we use whenever we get sick for a few days and need to stay in bed to recover. It's more of an inside joke for us because you don't use napeste for humans because it's usually only used on plants or animals and the naratay is when you are bedridden. That's what happened to us this week. Para kaming napeste kasi sunud-sunod kaming nagkasakit at naratay dito sa bahay. It started with my sister-in-law, then my niece, followed by my father, next was my stepmom and yours truly. Sabay sabay kaming nilagnat ng father at stepmom ko. Mukhang nagkahawahan. I'm glad na hindi na kami nilalagnat pero may mga ubo at sipon pa rin. Hilo at masakit ang ulo. Hirap magkasakit. Let's eat breakfast. Anong ulam ninyo?
