EN: to lift from; to extract; to adapt
This is what you do to the fried chicken when it's golden brown—you 'hanguin' it from the hot oil. It's also what you do when you save a friend from a toxic relationship—you 'hanguin' them from their misery. In a literary sense, it's what happens when a movie is 'hango sa' a best-selling book. It’s the ultimate act of extraction, rescue, or adaptation.
From `hango` (lifted, taken from) + `-in` (object-focus verb suffix).
Very versatile. Can be used in cooking, rescue situations, and for creative works. The preposition 'sa' is almost always used to indicate the source.
