Panig

Panig is a noun used in Filipino languages, most often Tagalog, to denote a side, part, faction, or stance in a dispute or discussion. It can refer to a literal side of an object or space, as well as a figurative position on an issue. Common constructions include phrases like "nasa aking panig" (on my side) and "kabilang panig" (the other side).

In addition to indicating position, panig also appears in the related noun pagpanig, which denotes the act of taking sides or aligning with a party, person, or idea. In political, legal, or everyday contexts, panig is used to talk about allegiances, camps, or viewpoints, for example "panig ng partido" (party’s side) or "pagpanig sa isang kandidato" (taking the side of a candidate). Synonyms or closely related terms include pananaw (viewpoint), opinyon (opinion), and posisyon (position).

Panig is a general linguistic term rather than a formal object, organization, or place. It does not designate a specific entity in standard references, and its meaning is determined by context. There may be local or culturally specific expressions that use panig in unique ways, but such uses are dialect- or community-dependent rather than universal.

If you had a particular Panig in mind—such as a place, person, or organization—providing more details would help tailor the article to that specific sense.
