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.
Causative verb. To cause something to flutter or wave ('pagaypay'). The root word itself is not commonly used, but the concept is understood in this verb form.
🇵🇭 Malakas ang hangin kaya hayaan mo lang papagaypayin ang mga damit sa sampayan.
🇺🇸 The wind is strong so just let the clothes flutter on the clothesline.
