EN: to preach; to moralize; to give as advice
This is what your lola does when you come home late. It's the act of giving a sermon or a lecture, usually about morals, good conduct, or life lessons. It can be from a priest in a church, a teacher in a classroom, or your mom when she sees your grades. 'Lagi niyang ipinapangaral sa amin ang kahalagahan ng pagiging matapat.'
From `i-` (causative prefix) + `pangaral` (sermon, advice). `Pangaral` itself is from `pang-` + `aral` (lesson).
ROOT MEANING: lesson, moral, study
Strongly associated with moral or religious instruction. Can sometimes be used sarcastically to mean 'to lecture someone'.
