EN: to admit; to confess
The "It's me, hi, I'm the problem, it's me" verb. It's what you do when you finally confess you ate the last piece of leche flan. In hugot culture, it's that moment you finally tell yourself, "Oo na, aaminin ko na, may feelings pa rin ako sa kanya." It's the first step to moving on... or to getting into more trouble.
ROOT MEANING: our/ours (exclusive)
The root 'amin' in this context means 'to own up to'. It is different from the pronoun 'amin'. The actor-focus form is 'umamin'.
