EN: to inculcate; to instill; to open one's eyes to
This is what your parents try to do when they teach you values, or what a 'woke' friend does when they introduce you to a social issue. It's about opening someone's eyes to a reality or a certain way of thinking. Like when you finally realized that 'adulting' is a trap. That's the moment it was ipinamulat to you.
From i- (causative prefix) + pa- (causative prefix) + mulat (awake, aware).
