FIL: Ang kilos ng pagputol sa isang partikular na bagay o bahagi gamit ang isang kasangkapang panggupit.
EN: to cut (something specific)
Very similar to 'guntingin', but derived from 'gupit' (haircut/cut). Think of it as the general command to 'cut it.' While 'guntingin' emphasizes the tool (scissors), 'gupitin' focuses on the act of cutting itself. 'Gupitin mo na 'yang litratong 'yan, 'wag mo nang tingnan, masasaktan ka lang.'
From 'gupit' + '-in'.
Object-focus verb, interchangeable with 'guntingin' in many cases. 'Gupitin' is slightly more common for general cutting actions.
