EN: to ripen fruit artificially; to let something mature
This is the OG life hack for unripe mangoes. You buy them green and hard from the palengke, wrap them in newspaper, and hide them in the rice dispenser (`bigasan`). A few days later, boom! Yellow, sweet mangoes. It's the process of forcing something to mature, like when your parents make you do chores to "build character."
From the prefix `mag-` (verb-forming prefix) and the root `in-in` (the act of artificially ripening fruit).
Specifically used for ripening fruits after they have been picked. The most common method mentioned is placing them in a rice container.
