EN: to touch lightly, to caress
It's that gentle touch, like when your crush "accidentally" brushes their hand against yours. Or when you're trying to get your friend's attention in a meeting without making a sound, you just hibuin their arm. It's the "psst" of touching.
From hibo (touch) + -in (verb suffix).
Often implies a gentle, sometimes affectionate or tentative, touch.
