EN: to gather together; to assemble
This is what happens during family reunions, team buildings, or EDSA People Power. It's the act of coming together as a group. Think Noche Buena when all the titos, titas, and pinsans you haven't seen all year suddenly appear. It's the plural, more festive version of `magsamahan`. Let's magsama-sama for inuman later!
ROOT MEANING: to go with; to accompany
Involves reduplication of the root 'sama', which emphasizes the collective and group nature of the action. Implies a larger group than 'magsamahan'.
🇵🇭 Tuwing Pasko, ugali na ng aming pamilya na magsama-sama sa bahay ng lola.
🇺🇸 Every Christmas, it's our family's tradition to gather together at grandma's house.
