EN: to be punished
This is the consequence part of 'actions have consequences.' When you get caught copying during an exam and the teacher makes you write 'I will not cheat' 500 times, you are being **naparusahan**. It’s the receiving end of justice, whether it's from your mom's tsinelas or the actual legal system.
From 'ma-' (potential) + 'parusa' (punishment) + '-han' (locative/benefactive).
Can be used in the infinitive form (to be punished) or completed aspect ('naparusahan' - was punished).
🇵🇭 Walang mayaman o mahirap, lahat ay dapat maparusahan kung nagkasala.
🇺🇸 Whether rich or poor, everyone must be punished if they have sinned.
