EN: to borrow (an object or money)
The verb for acquiring the actual thing you're borrowing. Kung ang 'utangan' ay 'yung tao (source), ang 'utangin' ay 'yung item (object). 'Plano kong utangin 'yung 5k mo.' This is the part where you specify what you need, from cash to your friend's Netflix password.
From 'utang' + '-in' suffix.
Focuses on the *object* or *amount* being borrowed. The object of the verb is the thing itself.
