EN: sewing shop; tailor shop
The OG 'pasadya' place. Before Zara and Uniqlo, this was where you got your prom gown or your school uniform made. It's the local atelier, the kingdom of the mananahi, filled with the sound of sewing machines and the smell of new fabric. Also, the place that saves you when you rip your pants.
From `pinag-` + `tahi` + `-an`. The `-an` suffix indicates a place where the action of the root word (tahi/sew) is done.
Can also refer to the discarded fabric scraps from sewing.
