EN: to flare up; to break out (as in a fire or war)
This is what happens when you bring up politics at a family reunion. It's also literally what happens when you pour gasoline on a fire. It’s the sudden, intense eruption of something—be it flames, a fight, or a full-blown "bardagulan" online.
From 'mag-' (actor-focus/stative verb prefix) + 'siklab' (flare, outburst).
Used for both literal fires and metaphorical outbursts of emotion or conflict.
