EN: to make a dog bark
When you accidentally make a noise at 3 AM and suddenly your neighbor's aspin starts a concert. It's the act of triggering a dog's bark, whether intentionally by teasing it or unintentionally by just existing too loudly. The ultimate way to announce your late-night arrival to the whole barangay.
From `pa-` (causative prefix) + `tahol` (bark) + `-in` (object-focus suffix).
