FIL: Ang pag-agos o pagdaloy ng tubig na parang isang sapa; ang pagbuo ng isang maliit na daluyan ng tubig.
EN: flowing into a brook
Imagine the rain after a super typhoon. The water starts collecting and flowing down the street, creating its own little river. That's 'pagsapa'—the process of water forming into a small stream or brook. It's nature's little pop-up drainage system.
From `pag-` (gerund prefix) + `sapa` (brook, stream).
ROOT MEANING: creek, stream, brook
A very descriptive but rare word. More commonly, one would just say 'dumadaloy na parang sapa'.
