EN: to sink in, to penetrate; to be buried
That feeling when a sharp comment from a friend really hits you deep – 'bumaon'. It's also what happens to a nail when you hammer it into wood, or to your finances when you get your credit card bill after a 12.12 sale. It can be physical, emotional, or financial sinking. 'Bumaon sa utang' is a national fear.
ROOT MEANING: Provisions; packed meal; allowance
Very versatile. Can mean to physically sink, to be in debt (bumaon sa utang), or for something to register deeply in one's mind or heart.
