EN: The act of fanning; a wave
The action itself. 'Ang lakas ng paypay mo, ramdam hanggang dito!' (Your fanning is so strong, I can feel it from here!). It's the noun form of the OG aircon method, the specific movement you make to survive a humid afternoon.
Refers to the action or motion, as opposed to 'pamaypay' which is the object (a fan).
