EN: to celebrate; to rejoice
This is the official verb for 'party!' It's what Pinoys do when Manny Pacquiao wins, when someone passes the board exams, or when it's a random Tuesday that feels like a fiesta. It’s more than just celebrating; it's celebrating with *feeling*. With lechon, karaoke, and probably a Tita asking when you're getting married. 'Pumasa siya sa board! Tara, magdiwang tayo!'
From Proto-Malayo-Polynesian *diwa (spirit, soul).
The root 'diwang' is related to 'diwa' (spirit, essence). 'Magdiwang' is literally 'to bring out the spirit'.
🇵🇭 Dapat tayong magdiwang dahil sa mga biyayang ating natanggap.
🇺🇸 We should celebrate because of the blessings we have received.
🇵🇭 Ang buong pamilya ay nagtipon upang magdiwang ng Pasko.
