EN: act of exchanging; interchange
This isn't just about trading things, but also words, ideas, or even insults (like in a rap battle). It's the "exchange gift" during Christmas parties. It's the back-and-forth messaging with your crush. It's the "palitan ng maanghang na salita" (exchange of harsh words) in a heated argument. Basically, a two-way street of giving and receiving.
From pakiki- (reciprocal action) + pag- (action noun) + palitan (to exchange with one another). Root is palit (change, replace).
Can refer to the exchange of goods, words, ideas, or even blows. The context specifies what is being exchanged.
