Usage Note
Muniin is the object-focus infinitive of muni, used when the subject or idea being contemplated is the grammatical focus. It carries a reflective, philosophical register distinct from casual thought verbs like isip, and frequently appears in religious and literary contexts. The compound noun pagninilay-muni pairs muni with nilay to describe deep meditative reflection common in homilies and devotional writing.
