EN: will tell; will say
The ultimate threat every Filipino kid hears: 'Isusumbong kita sa nanay mo!' The person who will do the telling is the one who 'magsasabi.' Also the thing you promise your best friend you won't do with their secret, but you're secretly tempted.
From `mag-` + reduplication of the first syllable of the root `sa-` + `sabi` (say). This is the future tense of `magsabi`.
