Which Filipino term is defined as nurturing or caring?

• A. Mapaniil
• B. Wastong paraan
• C. Puristang paniniwala
• D. Intelektwalisasyon

Answer: (A)

Nurturing or caring is about looking after someone, supporting their growth, and showing warmth and protection. In Filipino, this sense is captured by words like mapagkalinga or mapag-aaruga, which convey caring for others and tending to their needs.

Among the options, one means to oppress, another refers to doing something the right way, another to a strict belief, and another to intellectualization. None of these express nurturing, so the relationship between the term and its meaning here doesn’t align with the concept of care. The idea you’d look for to match nurturing is a term like mapagkalinga or mapag-aaruga, not the ones listed.
