EN: to catch or gather shrimp
This is what fishermen do to get the main ingredient for your sinigang na hipon. It’s not about "becoming" a shrimp, but "getting" the shrimp. So if someone asks you "Gusto mo mag-hipon?", they're inviting you to go shrimping, not commenting on your body-to-head ratio.
ROOT MEANING: shrimp; prawn
Maghipon means to gather shrimp. This is different from mag-ihaw ng hipon (to grill shrimp) or magluto ng hipon (to cook shrimp).
