FIL: Isang kalagayan ng lupa o daan na puno ng putik at malambot dahil sa pagkabasa.
EN: muddy
This is what your brand-new white sneakers look like after walking through a provincial shortcut during the rainy season. Not to be confused with the fruit, unless you literally fell into a pile of them. The more common term is 'maputik', so using this will get you some 'deep Tagalog' points.
From 'ma-' (having the quality of) + 'putik' (mud). The form 'sapote' is a less common, possibly regional, variant or corruption related to the soft, mushy texture, similar to the fruit 'sapote'.
ROOT MEANING: mud
This is a rare or regional term. 'Maputik' is the standard and more widely understood word for 'muddy'.
