EN: collector; will collect payment
This is both the person and the action. As a noun, it's the dreaded 'collector'—the one from the credit card company or the 'Bombay' on a motorcycle. As a verb (future tense), it's the *promise* of collection. It’s your friend texting "maniningil ako sa'yo bukas ha," a threat more terrifying than any horror movie.
ROOT MEANING: to collect payment, to charge, to dun
