Isn’t this Mandarami

Thank you for watching and supporting the channel. Please check out our Philippine playlist as.
In the context of the Philippines, "mandarami" wouldn't typically be used to describe self-flagellation. "Mandarami" is more about multiplying or increasing in number, rather than the act of self-flagellation. Self-flagellation is usually referred to in Filipino as "penitensya" or "pagpepenitensya," especially during Holy Week rituals.
