[edit]@Ysrael214 Same here, sources you consulted for this entry, aside from Diksiyonaryo. Thanks! Mar vin kaiser (talk) 14:27, 9 November 2022 (UTC)
- @Mar vin kaiser Vocabulario de la lengua tagala and Diccionario Tagalog-Hispano by Serrano Laktaw. Ysrael214 (talk) 14:34, 9 November 2022 (UTC)
- @Ysrael214: Which source gives the definition of "wiping of sweat"? --Mar vin kaiser (talk) 14:38, 9 November 2022 (UTC)
- @Mar vin kaiser I inferred that from panghimawis which means handkerchief and is a synonym for "pamahid pawis". Ysrael214 (talk) 14:42, 9 November 2022 (UTC)
- @Ysrael214: Not a good idea to infer definitions, especially for old words like these. We can indicate in the etymology instead that it indicates an idea of removal of sweat. --Mar vin kaiser (talk) 14:44, 9 November 2022 (UTC)
- @Mar vin kaiser But removal of sweat is different from the compensation though
- The prefix hi- has multiple uses. Ysrael214 (talk) 14:46, 9 November 2022 (UTC)
- @Mar vin kaiser I think the hing- for compensation refers to a state or condition, not removal. Ysrael214 (talk) 14:48, 9 November 2022 (UTC)
- @Ysrael214: Ah yes, you are right. Either way, not a good idea to infer that definition. As for the etymology, what's your interpretation for the usage of hing- in this case? --Mar vin kaiser (talk) 14:50, 9 November 2022 (UTC)
- @Mar vin kaiser For the compensation, something like what you'll be creating/receiving after you do pawis, like hinuha/hinguha. Not sure, I only have hing- to look at for choices, and the state/condition seems to be closer.
- Supposedly there should be himawis that means to wipe sweat (because of the panghininga entry) like hininga, panghininga but yea dictionaries didn't record that. Ysrael214 (talk) 15:00, 9 November 2022 (UTC)
