EN: to make someone narrate or tell a story
This is what your tita does at family gatherings when she points at you and says, 'O, ikaw naman! Kwento mo sa kanila 'yung nangyari sa'yo sa work!' It's the verb form of putting someone on the spot to spill the tea (or `chismis`). You're not telling the story, you're *making* them tell it.
From `pag-` + `salaysay` (narrative) + `-in` (causative verb suffix).
A causative verb. The subject of the verb is the one causing another person to narrate.
