EN: to meet; to welcome; to greet
The act of meeting someone halfway, literally. Like when your GrabFood driver calls and says 'Nandito na po ako sa labas,' and you go out to get your food. You're not just waiting, you're actively going to meet them. It's also what you do for your balikbayan Tita at the airport.
From `salubong`, meaning 'meeting' or 'encounter'. The suffix `-in` makes it a verb indicating an action to be done to an object.
ROOT MEANING: act of meeting or fetching someone; reception
Often used in the context of welcoming guests or meeting someone who is arriving.
