EN: to advise someone
This is what you do when your friend has a major "what do I do with my life?" crisis or is deep in a "hugot" moment about their love life. You sit them down, probably with coffee or beer, and `pagpayuhan` mo sila. It's the act of giving advice, solicited or not. Your tita who always asks when you're getting married is a master of this, in her own special way.
From `pag-` + `payo` + `-han`.
ROOT MEANING: advice; counsel
The verb `payuhan` means "to advise someone" (object-focused), while `magpayo` means "to give advice" (actor-focused). `Pagpayuhan` is the object-focused imperative/infinitive form.
