EN: to dodge; to parry; to evade a blow
It's what you do when your Tita asks, "Kailan ka mag-aasawa?" You mentally iplag the question and change the topic to the food. It's the physical version of "seen-zoning" a flying object.
The prefix 'i-' indicates that the action is done to or for something/someone, or the action involves moving something. Here it implies moving oneself away from something.
