EN: to steam; to vent
This has two moods. The literal one is for the kitchen: when you're steaming siomai or bok choy. The 'hugot' version is when you've had it with your boss/client/ex and you need to 'let off steam' by ranting to your bestie over milk tea. 'Girl, kailangan ko lang magpasingaw, aawayin ko na 'yung router.'
magpa- (causative prefix) + singaw (steam, vapor)
Can be used literally for cooking or figuratively for expressing pent-up emotions.
