EN: To pull
It's the command form of 'to pull.' Like when your friend is trying to leave the party and you grab their arm and say, 'Wait, one more song!' Or when you're trying to start a stubborn lawnmower. It's also used figuratively, like when you feel 'hinahatak' (being pulled) back to your ex, even though you know it's a bad idea. A classic case of emotional gravity.
This is the object-focus infinitive/command form of the root word 'hatak'.
🇵🇭 Huwag mong hatakin ang pisi, baka mapatid.
🇺🇸 Don't pull the string, it might break.
🇵🇭 Sinubukan niyang hatakin ang atensyon ng guro.
🇺🇸 She tried to pull (attract) the teacher's attention.
