EN: to redeem; to pay off a pledge
That feeling of victory when you finally go to the pawnshop (sanglaan) to get your jewelry back. "Yes, alahas, I have returned for you!" On a grander scale, it's what heroes and saviors do—they redeem people from a bad situation, whether it's from debt, danger, or a really bad hair day.
Has both a financial (pawning) and a spiritual/moral (redemption) context. This is the completed aspect (past tense).
