EN: to forge metal; to masturbate (male)
This word has two *very* different meanings. The formal one is what a 'panday' (blacksmith) does: hammering hot metal into a shape, like forging a sword. The... other one... is what teenagers are told will make them go blind. Context is EVERYTHING here. Don't mix them up.
The origin is likely onomatopoeic, mimicking a repetitive striking sound.
The colloquial meaning (masturbation) is far more common in modern conversation and is considered vulgar. The original meaning (to forge) is archaic and mostly found in literature or discussions about blacksmithing.
🇵🇭 Ang panday ay nag-salsal ng bakal upang gawing itak.
🇺🇸 The blacksmith forged the iron to make a bolo knife.
