EN: to make something wave or flutter
Imagine your long, rebonded hair in a shampoo commercial, flowing in slow-motion from an electric fan pointed just off-camera. That's 'papagaypayin'. It's causing something to flutter gracefully in the wind, like a flag on Independence Day or the 'tapon' of a beauty queen's gown.
