EN: to make (someone/something) stop
This is what your mom yells when you and your sibling are fighting: "Patigilin niyo 'yan!" It's what you want to do to the alarm clock in the morning. It's the command form of "stop". The ultimate "awatin" move. "**Patigilin** mo na 'yang ka-drāma-han mo, please."
From `pa-` (causative prefix) + `tigil` (stop) + `-in` (object-focus suffix).
A very common causative verb. It means to cause something or someone else to stop, often with a sense of authority or urgency.
