What is the meaning of Tagalog word undas?

The Tagalog word "Undas" is a shortened version of "Araw ng mga Patay" which translates to "Day of the Dead" in English.

It refers to a holiday celebrated in the Philippines, usually around the first and second of November, coinciding with the Catholic All Saints' Day (November 1) and All Souls' Day (November 2).

During Undas, Filipinos pay their respects to deceased loved ones by visiting cemeteries, cleaning their tombs, offering prayers, and sharing food and drinks.
