EN: to haul
This is a direct Tagalized loanword from English 'to haul'. It's what you do when your car breaks down and you need a tow truck to 'ihaula' it to the shop. Or when you buy so much stuff from the ukay-ukay that you need help to 'ihaula' your shopping bags home.
From English 'haul' + i- (causative prefix). The root 'haula' itself is not a native Tagalog word.
Primarily used for vehicles or very heavy objects. A clear English borrowing, often seen in news reports about vehicle recovery.
