FIL: Ang akto ng pagbaba mula sa isang mataas na lugar patungo sa isang mas mababang lugar.
EN: descent; act of going down
This is the opposite of your 'akyat-ligaw' efforts. It's literally just 'going down.' Think of getting off the MRT at your station, walking down the stairs from your condo, or that feeling when your grades 'go down' after prelims. It's the 'D' in 'D-scent.'
From the root verb 'panaog' (to descend, to go down). The noun form `pananaog` is created by reduplicating the first syllable of the root's core 'naog'.
ROOT MEANING: descent; the act of going down
Less common in everyday conversation than 'pagbaba'. Often used in more formal, literary, or religious (e.g., Christ's descent) contexts.
