EN: deep thought; comprehension; fathoming
This is a level up from 'paglilining.' This isn't just thinking; it's trying to understand something really, really deep. It's the 'paglilirip' on the meaning of life, the universe, and why Jollibee chicken tastes so good. It's the mental effort you exert when trying to understand a complex philosophical text or your partner's 'it's fine.'
From `pag-` (gerund prefix) + reduplication of the first syllable `li-` + `lirip` (to fathom, comprehend).
ROOT MEANING: deep understanding; comprehension
