FIL: Magbigay ng huling desisyon o hatol hinggil sa isang usapin o suliranin.
EN: to decide; to resolve; to rule
This is the more formal, almost judicial version of "magdesisyon." It's what a judge does in court, or what your parents do after a long family meeting about where to go for vacation. "Okay, katahimikan! **Ipinasiya** ng korte... este, ni Nanay, na sa Baguio tayo pupunta!" It carries weight and finality.
From 'i-' (causative prefix) + 'pasiya' (decision).
Often used in formal, legal, or serious contexts. 'Magpasya' is a more common synonym for 'to decide'. 'Ipasiya' focuses on the decision itself as the object of the verb.
