FIL: Pormal na isumbong sa kinauukulan, lalo na ang isang krimen o ilegal na gawain.
EN: to denounce; to report (a crime)
This is the more formal, serious cousin of `ipagsumbong`. You don't ipagsuplong someone for stealing your pen. You ipagsuplong them for tax evasion or running a syndicate. It's whistleblowing. It has the weight of bringing down a whole operation, not just getting someone grounded.
From i- (object focus prefix) + pag- + suplong (denunciation).
A formal term, often used in legal, news, or historical contexts. It is a stronger synonym for 'isumbong' and implies reporting a serious crime or act of betrayal to the authorities.
