EN: criticism, critique, commentary
The national sport of titas at a family gathering. It can be constructive, like what your prof gives you on your thesis, or... not. It's the "Uy, tumaba ka" comment that's disguised as an observation. It’s what happens in the comments section of any social media post.
From `puna` (comment, remark, criticism). The `paN-` prefix (manifesting as `pam-`) and reduplication creates a noun for the act of criticizing or commenting.
Can be neutral (critique), positive (praise), or negative (fault-finding). The context determines its nature.
