EN: to get married
The ultimate level-up in a Filipino relationship, often demanded by your titas every family reunion. "Kailan kayo magpapakasal?" is the national question for couples who've been together for more than a year. It's the event that requires a budget bigger than your lifetime savings.
From the prefix `magpa-` (to let something be done) and the root `kasal` (wedding). Essentially, 'to let oneself be wed'.
ROOT MEANING: wedding; marriage
