EN: to be able to answer
When you're in a job interview and you nail the question 'Where do you see yourself in 5 years?', you were able to `masagot` it. It’s also what you wish you could do to your ex's late-night 'kamusta ka na?' text, but you know you shouldn't. It's about having the ability, the knowledge, or the courage to respond.
From `ma-` (ability/potential prefix) + `sagot` (answer).
Implies ability or potential. 'Hindi ko masagot' means 'I can't answer,' not just 'I won't answer.' It can refer to answering questions, calls, or even prayers.
