FIL: Ang pandiwang-ugat para sa pagkilos ng pag-aanyaya o pag-imbita sa isang tao na sumama sa isang gawain, lugar, o kaganapan.
EN: to invite
This is the action of asking 'Tara?' (Let's go?). It's the root word for that moment you ask your friends to go for milk tea ('**Yaya**in mo sila'), or when your officemate invites you to lunch ('Nagyaya siya'). Not to be confused with the nanny, this **yaya** is all about getting people to join in.
This is a verb root. It is almost always used with affixes, e.g., yayain, nagyaya, yumaya, nag-yayaan.
🇵🇭 Siya ang laging nag-yaya sa aming kumain sa labas.
🇺🇸 He's always the one who invites us to eat out.
