EN: to pay and receive simultaneously
The official term for COD (Cash on Delivery). You get the Shopee/Lazada package, you hand over the cash. No trust issues, no "utang muna, bes." It's a straight-up, simultaneous exchange. I give you this, you give me that. Ganern.
From mag- + kaliwa + -an. Literally 'to do with the left hand,' possibly from the idea of giving with one hand (right) and receiving with the other (left) at the same time.
ROOT MEANING: left
Commonly used in commerce and informal transactions. The noun form is `kaliwaan`.
