Kopog

Kopog is a term that can refer to several distinct concepts, primarily within the context of Filipino culture and language. Most commonly, "kopog" is the Visayan word for a small, often freshwater, fish. These fish are typically found in rivers and streams and are a common food source in some regions of the Philippines. The specific species of fish referred to as kopog can vary depending on the locality.

In a different context, "kopog" can also be used as a verb in some Philippine languages, meaning to knock or to tap. This usage is less widespread than its application to fish but is still recognized. The pronunciation and exact meaning can differ slightly between dialects.

Additionally, "kopog" might appear in less common or regional slang, where its meaning can be highly context-dependent and may not be widely understood. Without further specific context, the most prevalent understanding of "kopog" remains its association with a type of small fish native to the Philippines.
