EN: to separate widely; to place far apart from each other
This is `paglayuin` on beast mode. It's not just separating two things; it's scattering multiple things far and wide. Imagine a teacher telling students during an exam: 'Paglayu-layuin ninyo ang mga upuan!' to prevent cheating. Or what you do with all the Christmas decorations, putting them in different boxes and storing them in the deepest, darkest corners of the bodega.
ROOT MEANING: distance
The reduplication of 'layu' implies that multiple items are being separated, often with significant distance between each one.
