FIL: Ang pagtulong sa isang tao o pagdala sa isang bagay upang makarating sa kabilang panig ng isang hadlang, tulad ng ilog, kalsada, o hirap.
EN: to carry across; to help cross
Literally, helping someone cross the street. Figuratively, it's what you do for your friend who's broke before payday—you 'itawid' them with a loan. It's getting someone or something over a hump, whether it's a river or the last five days of the month.
Can be used literally for crossing physical barriers or metaphorically for overcoming difficulties.
