This is the action you take when your boss asks 'Tapos na ba?' or your mom calls you for the 5th time. 'Sumagot ka!' is the classic parent line when they want you to talk back (but not really). It's the verb form of not leaving someone on 'seen'.
From the noun 'sagot'.
The primary verb forms are 'sumagot' (actor-focus, to answer) and 'sagutin' (object-focus, to answer something). The pronunciation of the verb root remains the same, but stress shifts in conjugation, e.g., /sa-gu-TIN/.
