EN: for a wake; funeral attire
This is your 'outfit of the day' (#OOTD) for visiting a wake. Usually, it's something respectful and somber, like a black or white shirt. It's the kind of clothing you keep ready, but hope you don't have to use often. Parang emergency fund, pero para sa social obligation sa patay.
From `pan-` (a prefix used to denote an instrument or purpose) + `burol` (wake, vigil for the dead). The `n` in `pan-` assimilates to `m` before `b`.
ROOT MEANING: wake; vigil for the dead
Can be used as an adjective ("damit na pamburol") or a noun ("May pamburol ka na ba?").
