EN: to exhale; to vent (feelings)
Two meanings here. First, literally, to breathe out. 'Inhale, tapos ihinga.' Second, and more importantly for your mental health, it means to vent or get something off your chest. When your friend says, 'Ihinga mo lang 'yan,' they're giving you a safe space to unload all your drama, hugot, and work-related stress. It's therapeutic exhalation.
From `i-` (verb prefix) + `hinga` (breath).
The figurative meaning of 'venting' is extremely common in modern conversation.
🇵🇭 Ihinga mo nang malalim para kumalma ka.
🇺🇸 Exhale deeply to calm yourself down.
🇵🇭 Tumawag siya para ihinga ang lahat ng sama ng loob niya sa akin.
🇺🇸 She called to vent all her frustrations to me.
