EN: to endure; to bear; to suffer through
To endure something difficult. It's what you do during a 3-hour EDSA traffic jam, a 4-hour government seminar, or when your internet is slow and you're trying to stream a series finale. It's the verb form of 'tiis' but with a 'carry the burden' vibe. "Batahin mo lang, bes. Matatapos din 'yan."
From the root "batá", meaning to endure or suffer. This root is not related to "bata" (child).
This verb is often confused as being derived from "bata" (child), but it comes from a separate, less common root "batá" (to endure).
