EN: to pose; to get into position
This is the command you give someone before taking their picture. 'Sige, porma!' means 'Okay, strike a pose!' It's the root word for action. It's less about the clothes (that's the noun) and more about the action of positioning your body to look good, cool, or just ready for the shot.
From Spanish 'forma'.
Used as a root word for verbs like 'pumorma' (to pose, to dress up, to make a move) and 'magporma'. Often used in its root form as an imperative command.
🇵🇭 Porma ka nang maayos, kukunan na kita ng litrato.

🇵🇭 Sinabihan ng direktor ang mga artista na pumorma para sa huling eksena.
