FIL: Ang pakiramdam ng matindi at kumikirot na sakit, tulad ng dulot ng sugat na nilagyan ng alkohol o ng maanghang na sili.
EN: stinging pain, smarting sensation
This is the pain you feel when you put alcohol on a fresh wound. It's the sharp, burning sensation when calamansi juice gets into a paper cut. It's also the emotional 'ouch' when your crush's reply is just a 'k.' or a thumbs-up emoji. Kahapdian is that specific, sharp, 'aray ko po' kind of pain, both literal and hugot.
From ka- + hapdi (sting, smarting pain) + -an.
Describes a specific type of pain—sharp and stinging, as opposed to a dull ache (`kirot`) or general pain (`sakit`).
