EN: correction, rectification, act of straightening
This is the 'let me correct you' or 'actually...' moment. It can be literal, like straightening a crooked picture frame. More often, it’s about correcting a mistake, whether it's a typo in a report, a wrong turn you took using Waze, or setting the record straight about some chismis. It's the act of making things right.
From `pag-` + `tu-` (reduplication) + `tuwid` (straight).
Can be used for both literal straightening (e.g., of a wire) and figurative correction (e.g., of a mistake or a person's behavior).
