EN: to solicit a response, to have someone reply
That feeling when you send a risky meme to the group chat and you wait for someone to react. You're trying to `magpatugon`. It's like posting "thoughts?" on social media or asking "ok ka lang?" to a friend who is clearly not okay, hoping they'll open up.
From `magpa-` (causative prefix) + `tugon` (response, reply).
A less common word, often found in more formal or literary writing.
