EN: to wink at each other
That silent communication you have with your workmate when the boss says something ridiculous. It's the 'I know, right?' expressed in a single, sneaky eye-twitch. Can also be a form of low-key landi (flirting) across a crowded jeepney.
From `mag-` (reciprocal verb prefix) + `kindat` (wink) + `-an` (reciprocal suffix).
ROOT MEANING: wink
`Magkindatan` is a reciprocal action, meaning two or more people are winking at each other. For a single person winking at someone, use `kumindat`.
🇵🇭 Nagulat ako nang magkindatan ang dalawang magkasintahan sa loob ng simbahan.
🇺🇸 I was surprised when the couple winked at each other inside the church.
🇵🇭 Huwag kayong magkindatan diyan, baka isipin ng iba may sikreto kayo.
🇺🇸 Don't you two wink at each other there, others might think you have a secret.
