EN: to cause traffic congestion
This is what happens when a jeepney decides to load/unload passengers in the middle of the road, a car breaks down on EDSA during rush hour, or when everyone suddenly decides to go to the mall at the same time. It's the universe's way of telling you, 'You should have left earlier... or just stayed home and watched Netflix.' The verb form of the noun we all love to hate.
From English 'traffic'.
ROOT MEANING: traffic (colloquial)
While 'trapik' (noun) is extremely common, the verb form 'magtrapik' is less common but understood. It's more common to say 'nagkakatraffic' (traffic is building up) or 'nakaka-traffic' (causes traffic).
