EN: homecoming; the act of going home
That magical moment at 5 PM when you can finally log off from your BPO shift. It's the 'uwian na, may nanalo na' moment of your day. For OFWs, it's the most awaited event, second only to the balikbayan box arriving. It's the journey back to where the wifi connects automatically and you don't have to wear pants.
From 'pag-' (gerund prefix) + 'uwi' (home).
ROOT MEANING: going home; the act of returning home
A very common and emotionally charged word.
