EN: to crash into; to cause to collide
Like when you're rushing to beat the red light and another car does the same thing. What happens next? 'Yan ang pag-isalpok. It's the action of making something forcefully collide with another, whether it's a car, your head against the wall after seeing your bills, or your cart into someone else's at the grocery.
The 'i-' prefix here makes the object being moved to collide the focus of the sentence. For example, 'Isalpok mo ang kotse' means '(You) crash the car'.
