EN: to make red; to redden
This isn't your everyday word. It's like something you'd read in a very dramatic poem. Imagine a writer describing a sunset: "Isinapula ng dapithapon ang buong kalangitan." (The dusk reddened the entire sky.) It's the act of turning something red, either literally with paint or figuratively with blood or emotion. Very metal.
Primarily used in literary or poetic contexts.
