FIL: Ang pagbibigay ng kaukulang halaga bilang kabayaran para sa isang produkto, serbisyo, o utang sa isang tao o entidad.
EN: to pay someone
The verb form of "sweldo day." It's what you do to your Meralco bill, your Shopee cart, or your friend you owe money to. "**Bayaran** mo na utang mo!" is a classic Filipino friendship-ender (or tester). It's the act of settling a debt, whether financial or a "debt of gratitude" (utang na loob). The focus is on WHO you are paying.
From "bayad" (payment) + "-an" suffix (verbal, locative).
The object of the verb is the person or entity being paid. Contrast with 'bayarin' (to pay for something). 'Bayaran mo si Maria' (Pay Maria). 'Bayarin mo ang kuryente' (Pay for the electricity).
🇵🇭 Kailangan kong bayaran ang may-ari ng apartment bukas.

🇺🇸 Pay Aling Nena for the vinegar you got.
