EN: to be closed on; to be shut out
This is the ultimate "talk to the hand" move, but with a door. When someone 'pagsarhan ka ng pinto', they're literally or figuratively slamming the door in your face. It's being rejected, ghosted, or denied an opportunity. It's that feeling when you're late for the mall's closing time and the guard shuts the door right as you arrive. Ouch.
From `pag-` + `sara` (close) + `-han` (locative/benefactive suffix).
ROOT MEANING: to close, to shut
This is a verb in the object-focus, imperative/infinitive form. It implies an action being done *to* or *for* someone/something.
