EN: to give or take an enema
Okay, let's be mature about this. This is the verb for using an enema. It's that medical procedure you hope you'll never need, often used for constipation or before certain surgeries. It's the ultimate 'pampadumi' when all else fails. Not exactly a topic for the dinner table, but a word you should know for... emergencies.
From Spanish 'lavativa' (enema).
A medical term. Not used in everyday casual conversation unless discussing health issues.
