EN: weaving (as a craft or industry)
This is the leveled-up version of 'paghabi'. It's not just a one-time thing; it's a craft, a livelihood, a continuous process. Think of the T'boli dreamweavers or the artisans in Ilocos making inabel. It's weaving as a professional gig or a deep cultural practice.
From "pag-" + reduplication of the first syllable of the root "ha-" + "habi". This form indicates a more intense, prolonged, or professional action.
ROOT MEANING: weave; texture (of woven material)
This is the more common form used when referring to the craft or industry of weaving, compared to the simple act of "paghabi".
