EN: to move along the edge; to scrape along the side
It's how you move through a crowded palengke or a packed MRT train—squeezing by, with your bag scraping the wall (or someone's back). It's the physical equivalent of 'excuse me po' when there's no space to actually move.
Often used in its conjugated forms like 'sumisidsid' (is moving along the edge) or 'sinidsid' (moved along the edge).
