EN: to remove, to take away
This is the "ghosting" verb. You alisin someone from your life. It's also what you do to that one friend in a group photo who blinked. Or when your mom tells you to alisin your shoes from the living room. It's the universal command for "get that thing out of here."
From 'alis' (to leave, depart) + '-in' (object-focus suffix).
ROOT MEANING: to leave, to depart, to remove
A very common command form. Can be used for physical objects, people, or even abstract things like doubts ('alisin ang pagdududa').
