EN: to have someone baptized; baptismal party
There are two meanings. 1) The verb: 'Pabinyagan na natin si baby!' means 'Let's have the baby baptized!' 2) The noun: 'Saan ang pabinyagan?' means 'Where's the baptismal party?' This is the reception after the church ceremony, where the ninongs and ninangs are expected to show up and the main event is often the lechon.
From `pa-` (causative) + `binyag` (baptize) + `-an` (locative/object suffix).
ROOT MEANING: baptism
The noun form is very common and refers specifically to the reception/party, not the religious rite itself.
