EN: to slow down, to reduce speed
What your dad yells when you're learning to drive and you treat the gas pedal like a mortal enemy. It's the "chill lang" version for speed. Also applicable to your spending habits after payday: "Kailangan ko nang magmenor sa gastos."
From Spanish 'menor' meaning 'lesser' or 'minor', combined with the Tagalog verb prefix 'mag-'.
Primarily used in the context of driving, but can be used metaphorically for other activities like spending, working, or even talking.
