/mag-tu-RING/
FIL: Itrato o kilalanin ang isang tao o bagay sa isang partikular na paraan; magpalagay.
EN: to consider; to treat as
This is the verb for when you're in that awkward 'Ano ba talaga tayo?' stage. 'He treats me like a sister,' is the classic friendzone line. Or, 'Parang kapatid na ang turing ko sa'yo.' It's how you define a relationship, officially or unofficially. It's all about perception and labels.
Often used with 'bilang' (as) or 'na parang' (as if). The forms 'turingin' (to treat someone as) and 'pagturing' (the act of treating) are very common.
