EN: to make someone get tired of something
This is what happens when your mom cooks adobo for a week straight. She will **papagsawain** you until you never want to see adobo again (for a few days, at least). It's also that song on the radio that's played every 5 minutes until you hate it. The goal is to reach the 'umay' factor.
ROOT MEANING: fed up, tired of, jaded
The root 'sawa' (fed up) is stressed on the last syllable /sa-WA/. This is different from 'sawa' /SA-wa/ (snake, python).
