FIL: Ang mapatawan ng multa o parusang salapi dahil sa paglabag sa isang batas o regulasyon.
EN: to be fined
This is what happens when you get caught jaywalking, color-coding, or returning a library book late. It's the universe (or the MMDA) telling you, "You messed up, now pay up." It's the financial consequence of your actions, the adult version of having your allowance cut.
From "ma-" + "multa" + "-han" (from Spanish 'multa').
This is a passive verb form; the subject is the one receiving the fine. The active form is "magmulta" (to impose a fine).
