EN: baptism
This is the baby's first-ever 'launch party.' There's a church ceremony, a new outfit, lots of godparents (ninongs and ninangs) who are expected to give 'pakimkim' (cash gift), and usually a big handaan afterwards. Metaphorically, 'binyagan' means to use something for the very first time, like your new shoes or your fresh sahod. 'Binyagan na natin 'yang bagong sweldo mo sa milk tea!'
From Proto-Malayo-Polynesian *bañak, meaning 'to wash'.
The verb form is "binyagan" (to baptize someone or to use something for the first time).
