EN: to let someone ride behind/with you (on a vehicle)
This is the ultimate 'sana all' moment for commuters stuck in traffic. It's when a motorcycle rider lets someone ride pillion. It's the signature move of Angkas and Joyride drivers. You're the one in control, the driver, and you're letting someone else hitch a ride. 'Bes, magpaangkas ka naman hanggang sa kanto!'
From `magpa-` (causative prefix) + `angkas` (to ride as a passenger, especially at the back).
ROOT MEANING: back-ride passenger
The subject is the driver who allows a passenger to ride. The passenger 'umaangkas' or 'nakikiangkas'.
