EN: to put; to place; to assume
This is a 2-for-1 verb! First, it means 'to put' or 'to place' something, like when your mom tells you where to put the groceries. Second, it means 'to assume' or 'to suppose'. "Magpalagay tayo na mananalo ka sa lotto..." (Let's assume you win the lotto...). It's about placing things, whether it's a vase on a table or an idea in your head.
The meaning depends heavily on context. 'Magpalagay ng...' usually means 'to put', while 'Magpalagay tayo...' means 'Let's assume...'.
