EN: to become heavy; to weigh down
This is that feeling when your eyelids start drooping in a 1 PM meeting, or when your heart sinks after a sad movie. It's not just physical weight. Your "dama" can mamigat (your feelings get heavy), your "talukap-mata" can mamigat (eyelids get heavy), and of course, the traffic can make your whole situation mamigat. It's the official verb for "ugh, this is heavy."
From `ma-` (infinitive prefix) + `-m-` (infix) + `bigat` (heavy).
Can be used for physical weight, emotional burden, or sleepiness.
