Sinigang means "stewed [dish]"; it is nominalized in the form of the Tagalog verb sigang, "to stew". [1] While present nationwide, sinigang is seen to be culturally Tagalog in origin, thus the similar sour stews and soups found in the Visayas and Mindanao (like linarang) are regarded as different dishes and differ in the ingredients used.
The name linarang or nilarang (lit. "done as larang"), is the affixed form of the Cebuano verb larang, meaning "to stew with coconut milk and spices". [2] The word is originally a synonym of the ginataan cooking process (ginat-an or tinunoan in Cebuano), but has come to refer exclusively to this particular dish.
Pinais na hipon is typically made out of finely-chopped freshwater shrimp, coconut milk, and sometimes pork, wrapped in banana leaf and cooked in coconut milk. [4] A unique variant from Quezon additionally wraps the shrimp and coconut in kamamba (Piper umbellatum) leaves.

Sinampalukan is very similar to sinigang and is sometimes regarded as a mere variant of the latter. However, sinampalukan differs most obviously in that it uses tamarind leaves as one of the main ingredients. It is also restricted to tamarind as the souring agent, unlike sinigang which can also use a variety of other sour fruits. [2] [7]
Pinangat na isda may also sometimes be referred to as paksiw, a related but different dish which primarily uses vinegar to sour the broth. [7] [8] Pinangat na isda is also commonly confused with laing (also called pinangat na laing or pinangat na gabi), a Bicolano dish also known simply as pinangat. But they are different dishes. [9] [4]
