EN: to plow a field (poetic/archaic)
This is the OG, old-school word for "araruhin" (to plow). You'd probably hear this from your lolo who still talks about the good old days of farming with a carabao. It sounds more poetic and dignified, like something you'd read in a Florante at Laura-era text instead of a modern agricultural manual.
From 'araro' (plow).
ROOT MEANING: plow
This is a very rare and literary variant of the more common 'araruhin'. Most speakers would not recognize or use it.
🇵🇭 Maaga pa lamang ay nagsimula na siyang arahan ang kanilang bukid.
🇺🇸 It was still early when he started to plow their field.
