This is what happens to the gravy when you let it simmer, the chismis when more details are added, or the traffic on EDSA at 5 PM. 'Manlapot' is the process of thickening. It's that perfect, rich consistency you want in your kare-kare sauce, but the absolute worst thing for your morning commute.
Mula sa unlaping 'mang-' at ang salitang-ugat na 'lapot' (thickness/viscosity). Nagaganap ang asimilasyon.
Primarily used in cooking to describe sauces, soups, or liquids thickening. The past tense is 'nanlapot'.
