EN: to scamper; to run hastily
This isn't just running; this is panic-running. Imagine seeing a giant 'ipis' (cockroach) fly. The chaotic, zig-zagging sprint you do to get away? That's 'kumarimot ng takbo'. It’s the kind of run that’s fueled by pure adrenaline and terror. Not graceful, just fast.
A verb phrase. 'Kumarimot' is the verb, and 'ng takbo' specifies the action. It's rarely used without 'ng takbo'.
