EN: hole puncher; perforator
This is any tool whose life purpose is to make a hole. From the humble office paper puncher to the power drill your Tito uses for his DIY projects. It's the OG 'cancel' tool for paper. Got a mistake on a document? Pambutas to the rescue para ma-file sa ring binder at 'di na makita.
From `pan-` (instrument prefix) + `butas` (hole). The `n` in `pan-` assimilates to `m` before `b`.
