FIL: Ang akto ng pag-inom o pag-ubos sa isang likido, karaniwan ay sabaw, sa pamamagitan ng pagsipsip.
EN: to sip (something)
If 'higop' is the sound, 'higupin' is the command. 'Higupin mo ang sabaw!' (Slurp the soup!). This is what your nanay tells you when you're sick and she gives you hot tinola. It focuses on the liquid itself being consumed. It's the 'finish the soup' verb.
ROOT MEANING: sip, slurp
The focus of this verb is the liquid being sipped. Contrast with 'higupan', which focuses on the container.
