FIL: Ang akto ng paglalagay o pagbibihis ng sapatos sa isang tao.
EN: To put shoes on someone
This is what you do for your little pamangkin who can't tie their own laces yet. It's the act of being the official 'shoe-putter-onner'. Your mom might yell, 'Hoy, sapatusan mo na 'yung bata, aalis na tayo!' ('Hey, put the kid's shoes on, we're leaving!').
From 'sapatos' + '-an' suffix.
ROOT MEANING: Shoe(s)
Used when the action is being done *to* someone else. The object of the verb is the person being shod. Contrast with 'mag-sapatos', which means 'to wear shoes' (oneself).
