FIL: Ang pagtutuwid sa isang bagay na baluktot, mali, o hindi maayos.
EN: to correct; to straighten
Like when you try to explain to your lola that 'networking' isn't a scam, but she's not having it. It's the act of trying to set something straight, from a crooked picture frame to a friend's questionable life choices. Also, what your boss does to your report after you submit it.
This is a less common word. 'Ituwid' is more frequently used.
