/pa-mi-ming-WIT/
FIL: Ang gawain ng paghuli ng isda gamit ang isang bingwit, na binubuo ng pamansing, pisi, at pain.
EN: fishing with a hook and line; angling
The OG "waiting game." It's what your lolo does on a quiet Sunday morning by the river. It's the ultimate test of patience, where you spend hours staring at the water, hoping for a bite, only to end up buying fish from the palengke on your way home.
From "bingwit" (fishing rod/hook and line). The "pan-" prefix becomes "pam-" and the first syllable of the root is reduplicated ("-bi-" becomes "-mi-").
ROOT MEANING: fishing rod; fishing hook and line
Specifically refers to angling, not other forms of fishing like using a net (lambat). This is the action, while 'pamingwit' is the tool.
