EN: to pout
You know that face a kid makes right before they cry because you didn't buy them a toy? That's lumabi. It's the ultimate 'tampo' move. Adults do it too, especially when they're trying to be cute or 'paawa' (pity-seeking) to get what they want from their jowa. It's the physical manifestation of a "sad react."
From the root 'labi' (lips) with the infix '-um-'.
ROOT MEANING: lip
This verb is specifically derived from 'labi' meaning lips, not the homonym 'labí' which means remains/corpse.
