EN: to have something woven
This is the boss-level command for weaving. You don't do the weaving yourself; you tell someone, "Hey, pahabiin mo nga itong mga hibla para maging banig." It's like ordering a custom-made item from a weaver. Think of it as the pre-industrial version of "paki-print" or "pa-photocopy."
ROOT MEANING: weave; texture (of woven material)
A causative verb. The subject of the sentence causes the action of weaving to be done by someone else.
