EN: to dry (something)
The official command given to the youngest sibling after washing the dishes. Also, what you try to do with your tears before your boss sees you crying over a spreadsheet. It's the act of making something wet become not wet, from laundry ('patuyuin ang sinampay') to a wound ('patuyuin ang sugat').
From the causative prefix "pa-", the root word "tuyo" (dry), and the object-focus suffix "-in".
ROOT MEANING: dry
This is an object-focus verb. The object being dried is the grammatical subject of the sentence. Differentiated from 'patuyutin' which means to cause to wither.
