EN: act of persuading or coaxing
This is the art of 'lambing' and 'pambobola' rolled into one. It's how you convince your mom to let you go out, or how you get your friend to treat you to milk tea. It requires skill, charm, and sometimes a bit of drama. The ultimate 'please, please, please' move.
From 'pag-' (gerund prefix) + 'hi-' (intensive prefix) + 'himok' (to persuade).
Implies a persistent and often gentle or pleading form of persuasion.
