EN: swallowing; the act of swallowing
Yung hirap na hirap mong gawin kapag may masakit kang pride. "Swallowing your pride" is a thing, 'di ba? Also, what you do when the chismis is so hot, you just have to take it all in. Literally, it's how you get your meds or that last piece of lechon down.
From `pag-` + reduplication of the first syllable of the root `lunok` (`lu-`) + `-lon` (a variation of the root). `Paglunok` is the more standard form.
`Paglunok` is the more common term for swallowing. `Paglulon` might be encountered in older texts or poetry.
