EN: bandaging; the act of applying a bandage
That thing your tita who's a nurse is a pro at. It's the act of wrapping up a wound, whether it's a small "gasgas" from falling or your "sugat" from a broken heart (though the latter might need more than just gauze). It's first aid 101.
From `pag-` + `be-` (repetition prefix) + `bendahe` (bandage, from Spanish 'vendaje').
ROOT MEANING: bandage
The `pag-` + `reduplicated first syllable` form indicates a continuous or habitual action, but here it simply functions as the noun for the action itself.
