EN: to squat with one leg extended
This is that specific, almost-acrobatic squat you do when you're trying to check something low on a grocery shelf but don't want your pants to touch the floor. It's the "tindera sa palengke" power pose while sorting vegetables. A very Filipino way of resting without actually sitting down.
A very specific posture, often associated with rural or market settings.
