EN: to cause to sag; to make something bend downwards
When you overload the 'sampayan' with wet jeans and it starts to droop—that's 'palunduin'. It's what happens to your shoulders after a 12-hour shift, or to a bridge with too many cars. It’s the action of defeating gravity's opponent.
From pa- prefix + lundo (sag, dip) + -in suffix, a causative verb form.
ROOT MEANING: sag; droop; dip
This is a less common word. 'Lundo' or 'lumulundo' (is sagging) are more frequently heard.
