EN: to spin; to rotate; to make something turn
This is what you do to a beyblade, a spinning top, or the 'Wheel of Names' during a team meeting to decide who gets the next task. It's the act of causing something to rotate, whether it's a toy, a wheel, or a small amount of capital to grow your side hustle.
From `pa-` (causative prefix) + `inog` (spin/rotation) + `-in` (object-focus suffix). `Inog` is a less common word for 'spin'.
Verb in imperative/infinitive form. Other forms: `pinainog` (past), `pinapainog` (present), `papainugin` (future).
