"Puy-As" is a word in HILIGAYNON
púy-as - Clean, well hulled rice; to hull or
pound rice very well, so that the bankolít
comes off as well as the husks. Puy-así ang
pináwà. Finish pounding the half-hulled
rice.
Every word the right one and exactly where it should be. That's basically the highest compliment I can give.
