Ang bugtong — na tinatawag ding pahulaan o patuturan — ay isang pangungusap o tanong na may doble o nakatagong kahulugan na nilulutas bilang isang palaisipan.
A riddle is a sentence or question with a double or hidden meaning that is solved as a puzzle.
Riddles in Tagalog usually have a rhyming quality, with a wit and insight that elevates them beyond a simple guessing game or question of logic.
