EN: To trust (someone)
This is when you give someone your Netflix password and pray they don't mess up your algorithm. It's also that friend you can vent to about anything, knowing they won't screenshot your convo. To be 'pinagkakatiwalaan' is a huge honor—it means you're not a 'marites'.
The verb form focuses on the act of placing trust in someone or something. 'Tiwalaan mo ako' means 'Trust me'. 'Pinagkatiwalaan kita' means 'I trusted you'.
🇵🇭 Mahirap tiwalaan ang taong minsan ka nang niloko.
