EN: to beat up, to maul, to batter
If 'bugbugan' is the event, **bugbugin** is the action. It's what you do *to* someone or something. It's more intense than just 'suntukin' (to punch); this implies a thorough, severe beating. It's the verb for what happens to your wallet after a 12.12 sale, or what you feel like doing to your laptop when it crashes before you save.
A strong word indicating severe physical violence.
