FIL: Taimtim at lubos na ipaalala sa sarili o sa iba ang isang mahalagang bagay; laging isaisip.
EN: to remind earnestly; to bear in mind
This is what your mom tells you before you leave the house, with maximum intensity. "Pakaalalahanin mo, umuwi ka bago mag-alas-diyes!" It's not just 'remind', it's 'remind with the full weight of ancestral power'. It's "I'm telling you this for the nth time, so you better burn it into your brain" kind of reminder.
From `alala` (remember/care), with the complex circumfix `paka- -han` (becoming `paka- -in` in the object-focus form), and reduplication of the root.
A very intensive form of "alalahanin" (to remember/remind). The prefix "paka-" adds a sense of earnestness, thoroughness, or intensity.
