EN: to beg for mercy; to plead pitifully
This is a level up from `magmakaamo`. It's more desperate and intense. This is what the kontrabida does in the final scene of a teleserye when they're cornered and about to be arrested. It's begging for your life, your job, or for forgiveness when you've messed up big time. There's a sense of desperation and pity involved.
More intense and desperate than 'magmakaamo'. It emphasizes the pitiful state of the one pleading.
