EN: to pick up; to gather
What your mom yells when you drop food on the floor ('**Pulutin** mo 'yan!'). It's the act of picking up something you dropped, finding something on the ground, or gathering scattered items. The 5-second rule totally applies here.
From `pulot` (the act of picking up) + `-in` suffix.
This is the object-focused verb. The synonym 'damputin' often implies picking up smaller things more delicately.
