EN: to have something sewn
When your favorite jeans get a 'butas' and you can't sew to save your life, you take it to a 'mananahi' or your lola. The action you're requesting is 'ipanahi'. 'Ma, pa-ipanahi naman nitong butas sa pantalon ko.' It's the official verb of people who are friends with tailors.
From i- (benefactive/causative prefix) + pa- (causative prefix) + tahi (sew).
Refers to commissioning someone else to do the sewing for you. Contrast with 'tahiin' (to sew something yourself).
