FIL: Gawing dalisay, malinis, o puro ang isang bagay sa pamamagitan ng pag-aalis ng mga dumi, di-kanais-nais na elemento, o kasalanan.
EN: to purify, to refine
This is what you do to water to make it drinkable, or to gold to make it 24k. It's the process of removing the impurities. It can also be very spiritual or emotional. 'Pumunta siya sa retreat para magpadalisay ng kanyang kaluluwa.' (He went on a retreat to purify his soul.) It's about getting back to the pure, essential, unadulterated version of something.
From 'mag-' (verb prefix) + 'pa-' (causative prefix) + 'dalisay' (pure). 'To cause to be pure.'
Used both in a literal, chemical sense (refining substances) and a figurative, spiritual/moral sense (purifying the soul/intentions).
