EN: act of begging
The "pa-victim" move, but for real. It's what you see on the streets when someone asks for "konting barya lang po." On a lighter note, it's what you jokingly do with your friends when you're broke before payday: "Penge 20, pang-jeep lang."
From `pag-` + `pa-` + `limos` (alms).
Can be used literally for begging on the streets, or hyperbolically among friends.
