EN: act of turning off; extinguishing
What you do to the lights before 'Netflix and chill', or what your mom yells at you to do when you leave a room. It's also what Meralco does to your power when there's a scheduled maintenance. The act of making something 'patay' (dead/off).
Context is key to differentiate this from the 'killing' meaning. Usually refers to electronics, fire, or engines.
