EN: to allow oneself to be rescued
This is that moment in a movie when the hero is dangling from a cliff and tells their friend, "Go on without me!" and the friend says "No! **Pasagip** ka na!" It means 'let yourself be saved!' It's also what you do when you're drowning in deadlines—you wave the white flag and ask your work bestie for help.
From `pa-` (causative/request prefix) + `sagip` (rescue).
Can mean either allowing rescue or asking for rescue, depending on context.
