EN: To strut, to sashay, to walk the runway
When you're feeling your OOTD and you walk down the hallway like it's a fashion show. That's 'rumarampa'. It's not just walking; it's walking with *attitude*. Think Catriona Gray's lava walk. From the office lobby to the palengke, any place can be your runway.
From Spanish 'rampa' (ramp), which became associated with the fashion runway.
This is the root word. It is commonly used with verb affixes: rumampa (to strut), mag-rampa (to strut), irampa (to parade something). 'Pa-rampa' is a popular colloquialism meaning 'to show off by walking'.
