EN: the act of identifying; referring; specifying
When your friend says "yung ano..." and you have to play detective to figure out what "ano" they're talking about. That whole process is 'pagtukoy'. It's pointing someone out in a crowd, citing your sources in a thesis, or specifying which Jollibee branch you want to meet at. It's the opposite of being vague. Precision is key!
Mula sa unlaping `pag-` at sa salitang ugat na `tukoy` (pagturo o pagbanggit sa isang bagay).
