EN: to sermonize, to lecture, to preach
This is what your nanay does when you come home at 3 AM. It's not just a scolding; it's a full-blown TED talk on responsibility, life choices, and the price of rice. Often starts with 'Noong panahon namin...' and ends with you staring at the floor.
From Spanish 'sermón' (sermon).
Can be used in a religious context (a priest giving a sermon) or a domestic one (a parent lecturing a child). The tone is often one of lengthiness and being told what to do.
