Tagalog

Alternative forms

Etymology

Either of the following:

  • Syncopic form of huhutan with elision of /h/, from huhot +‎ -an. (hu(h)után → huután → hútan)
  • Syncopic form of huwatan with elision of unstressed /a/, from huwat +‎ -an. (huw(a)tán → huwtán → hútan)

The penultimate length/stress indicate syncopation (cf. hipan). If the root is *hut (unlikely because most roots are more than one syllable), expected pronunciation would be hután.

Pronunciation

  • (Standard Tagalog) IPA(key): /ˈhutan/ [ˈhuː.t̪ɐn̪]
  • Rhymes: -utan
  • Syllabification: hu‧tan

Verb

hutan (complete hinutan, progressive hinuhutan, contemplative huhutan, Baybayin spelling ᜑᜓᜆᜈ᜔) (obsolete)

  1. to be grasped; to be held by the hand
    Synonyms: hawakan, tanganan
    Hutan mo yaring payong.
