EN: act of pacifying; mediation; separating fighters
This is what your nanay does when you and your sibling are fighting over the remote control. She's the referee, the peacemaker. "Awat na!" is the classic line shouted to stop a fight, whether it's a real brawl, a heated Twitter debate, or two cats hissing at each other.
Often used as an interjection "Awat!" to mean "Stop fighting!" or "Break it up!". The person who performs the action is the "tagapag-awat".
