EN: To lend to someone
This is the verb form of that moment of truth. To 'pautangin' someone is to trust them with your hard-earned cash, hoping it doesn't turn into a ghosting situation. It's the ultimate test of friendship, second only to assembling IKEA furniture together.
From pa- prefix + utang (debt) + -in suffix.
The object of this verb is the person receiving the loan. 'Pautangin mo si Juan' means 'Lend to Juan'.
🇵🇭 Pautangin mo muna ako, babayaran kita sa sahod.
🇺🇸 Lend me some money for now, I'll pay you on payday.
🇵🇭 Mahirap pautangin ang taong hindi marunong magbayad.
🇺🇸 It's difficult to lend to a person who doesn't know how to pay.
