EN: to have something flapped or shaken out
This is what your mom yells at you to do with the dusty rug or 'basahan'. "Ipagaspas mo 'yan sa labas!" It's that quick, flapping motion to get dust, dirt, or water off something. Chickens do this with their wings. It's a very dynamic, almost violent shake.
i- (causative prefix) + pagaspas (the sound or action of flapping)
Can refer to flapping wings, shaking out a cloth, or even the rustling of leaves in the wind. A more forceful version of 'ipagpag'.
