EN: to point at something with one's lips
The action of using the Filipino GPS (your lips). It's a verb! You don't just have a 'nguso', you actively 'ngusuan' things. "Ngusuan mo nga kung nasaan yung bilihan ng yosi." It's efficient, hands-free, and a core skill for any Pinoy.
ROOT MEANING: snout; lips; pout
This is the object-focus verb form. The action is directed *at* something. It can also mean 'to pout at someone'.
