EN: Cutting tool; scissors; clippers
The official term for "gunting" or "nail cutter." It's any tool you use for cutting. The scissors you use to open a bag of chips, the clippers for your nails, or the shears the barber uses to give you that questionable "summer cut." If it snips, it's a `panggupit`.
From 'pang-' (tool/instrument for) + 'gupit' (cut/haircut).
A general term. 'Gunting' is more specific for scissors, while 'panggupit' can also refer to clippers.
