FIL: Gawing mas matarik o mas nakatindig nang tuwid ang isang bagay.
EN: to make steeper; to make upright
This is what you tell the construction worker when the ramp they built looks more like a slide for penguins. It's about increasing the angle, making something stand up straighter or steeper. "Patarikin mo pa 'yang hagdan, masyadong banayad."
From `pa-` (causative prefix) + `tarik` (steepness) + `-in` (object-focus suffix).
Can refer to literal steepness (like a hill or ramp) or making something stand up straight.
