FIL: Ang pagpindot sa 'like' button sa isang social media platform upang ipahiwatig ang pagsang-ayon, paghanga, o pagkilala sa isang post.
EN: to like (social media)
The most important verb of the 21st century. This is what you do to your friend's new profile picture, your crush's cryptic status, or a funny meme. To "maglike" is to give digital validation. The opposite is to "mag-seen," which is a digital crime.
From English "like", with the Tagalog verbalizing prefix "mag-".
A clear example of code-switching becoming a standard verb in modern Filipino. Often written as 'mag-like'.
