EN: to assume; to speculate
This is the root of all chismis and "overthinking." It's when you see your crush's "seen" receipt but no reply, and you start to ipagsapantaha that they hate you, they're with someone else, or they were abducted by aliens. It's making a conclusion without the facts. "'Wag mong ipagsapantaha na galit siya, baka lowbatt lang!"
From i- (object focus prefix) + pag- + sapantaha (hunch, suspicion).
Implies a conclusion drawn from incomplete information or a lack of solid evidence. Often used with a cautionary tone.
