EN: to build a bonfire, to burn something in a pile
Your provincial cousin's version of a party. It's the OG 'lit'. You gather around, maybe roast some marshmallows (or hotdogs on a stick), and tell ghost stories. Also what you do with your ex's love letters. 'Tara, magsiga tayo ng basura at ng mga masasamang alaala.'
From 'siga' (bonfire, blaze).
ROOT MEANING: to light, to ignite, a bonfire/blaze
Usually refers to an open-air fire, not a controlled one like in a stove or fireplace. It can be for warmth, cooking, or burning refuse. Often associated with rural or outdoor settings.
