This is the "getting to know you" stage. It's what happens during the first day of class, a team-building activity, or a first date. "Magkilala muna tayo" is the polite way of saying "Hold your horses, let's see if we even like each other first."
From mag- (reciprocal action prefix) + kilala (to know someone).
Implies a mutual action between two or more people. Can refer to the first moment of meeting ('nagkilala') or the ongoing process.
