EN: to forgive someone
The verb form of every "I'm sorry" flower delivery and apology text. This is what you hope your friend does after you accidentally spoil the ending of their favorite series. It's the core of the classic OPM song lyric, "Patawarin mo ako..." It's harder to do than to say, and it's the basis of a thousand hugot lines about moving on.
From `pa-` (request/causative prefix) + `tawad` (pardon) + `-in` (object-focus suffix).
The object of this verb is the person being forgiven.
🇵🇭 Sana ay patawarin mo ako sa aking mga pagkukulang.
🇺🇸 I hope you forgive me for my shortcomings.
🇵🇭 Mahirap patawarin ang taong paulit-ulit kang sinasaktan.
🇺🇸 It's hard to forgive a person who repeatedly hurts you.
