EN: to scoop up; to gather with a net
Imagine you're trying to get all the pearls from your milk tea with a straw, or scooping up small fish from an aquarium with a tiny net. That's 'sahulin'. It's the act of trying to gather everything in one go, usually from a liquid. "Bes, sahulin mo na lahat ng chismis bago ka umuwi!"
Distinct from 'kunin' (to get), as 'sahulin' implies using a tool like a net or scoop.
