EN: To suffer, to experience, to befall
This is a dramatic word. It’s what happens *to* you, usually something bad. It's not just 'to experience,' it's 'to end up with' or 'to be met with' a certain fate. 'Ano kaya ang sasapitan ng bida sa finale?' (What fate will the protagonist suffer in the finale?). It’s the punchline of karma, the result of your actions (or someone else's).
From 'sapit' (arrival, fate) + '-an' suffix.
Often has a negative connotation, implying a consequence or fate that one arrives at. The past tense 'sinapit' is very common.
