"Siri-Siri" is a word in HILIGAYNON
sirí-síri - To separate the hulled rice from
the unhulled grains after pounding by
tossing the whole mass in a shallow
bamboo-basket and throwing the unhulled
grains (pásì) off in front. Sirisiríha lang
ang bugás, kon índì ka makahibaló
magsisíg. Separate the hulled rice from the
unhulled grains by the operation of
"sirísíri”, if you do not know how to
perform the "sisíg”. (cf. sisíg, with the
difference that in sisíg the "pásì” are
thrown off at the side).
If you expect great things of yourself and demand little of others, you’ll keep resentment far away.
