EN: rhetoric
This is the art of "bolahin" (sweet-talking) someone, but make it classy. It's how politicians deliver speeches that make you think they'll solve all your problems, or how that suitor writes you a love letter that sounds like a Balagtas poem. It's not just *what* you say, but *how* you say it with style and grace. The opposite of "bardagulan" (chaotic fighting) on social media.
From "saysay" (meaning, substance) with reduplication, suggesting elegance and order.
A formal and literary term, often encountered in academic or literary contexts.
