Question: How can we use "pamilyar" as a verb? Based on the dictionary here it is an adjective. If it can be a verb, how do we conjugate it? Examples: Pamilyar ako sa lugar na iyan. Pamilyar ikaw sa akin. TIA.

"Pamilyar" is just the Tagalog spelling of "familiar". The Tagalog verb could be "makilala" or maybe "matandaan" - Nakikilala/Natatandaan ko ang lugar na iyan. Nakikilala/Natatandaan kita.
 
Just think of "pamilyar" as really "familiar" and then form a Taglish verb out of it.
 
Also, "Pamilyar IKAW sa akin" sounds awkward. The correct way to say it is "Pamilyar KA sa akin".
