EN: to discourage, to dishearten
This is what happens when someone rains on your parade. You're all excited about your new business idea, and then a friend says, 'Nako, mahirap 'yan. Baka malugi ka lang.' That's them 'nagpapahina ng loob' mo. It's the ultimate 'killjoy' move that drains your motivation and makes you doubt yourself.
Idiomatic phrase from `magpahina` (to cause to weaken) + `ng` + `loob` (inner self, spirit). Literally 'to weaken the inside.'
A very common Filipino idiom used to describe emotional discouragement.
