EN: act of opening or browsing a book
That moment when you're speed-reading for an exam, flipping pages like there's no tomorrow. 'Yung state ng libro mo after mo mag-pull ng all-nighter. It’s the physical action before you can say 'buklatin' or 'basahin'.
Often used as a root word for verbs. As a noun, it refers to the action itself. It can also be used as an adjective meaning 'opened flat' (e.g., 'buklat na ang aklat').
