EN: can be moved; is being transferred
Like when your boss says the deadline naililipat to next week—hallelujah! Or when your flight gets rescheduled. The phrase 'naililipat ang petsa' (the date can be moved) is a classic for event organizers and procrastinators. It's the verb of flexibility and sometimes, of endless waiting. 'Bes, 'yung kasal naililipat, pero 'yung feelings hindi.'
The 'na-' prefix indicates ability, while the '-ili-' infix denotes the ongoing or progressive aspect of a passive action. It means something *can be* or *is being* moved/transferred.
