Tara SA kanto -

"Tara sa kanto..."

"Kanto" is the Filipino word for street corner. "Tara sa kanto", loosely translated to mean "come let's go to the street corner", is what a friend would usually say to another; an open invitation to meet up with other friends. The street corner was the spot where friends meet to chat and trade stories of how their day went, make small talk, or simply spend time watching the world go by. In the olden days, it was one form of social networking so to speak.
