Classic palengke or supermarket line. "Ate, **patimbang** nga po ng isang kilong baboy." It's the magic word to get the vendor to put your chosen goods on the weighing scale. Also used figuratively, like when you're asking friends to weigh in on a decision. "Guys, **patimbang** naman, jowain o trabaho?"
From pa- prefix indicating causation/request + timbang (weight).
Often used as a command or request. The full verb form is `magpatimbang` or `ipatimba`.
