FIL: Ang pag-aapoy o ang kalagayan ng pagiging may apoy o ilaw; ang mismong pagsisimula ng apoy.
EN: ignition, light, spark
The OG command before 'Netflix and chill' was 'Sindi na, manonood tayo.' It's the action of starting a fire, whether it's for a romantic candle, your Tito's yosi, or the gas stove when it's your turn to cook the sinangag. It's the spark that starts it all, the very moment of ignition.
Possibly from a shortened form of Spanish 'encender' (to light).
Often used as a root word for verbs like 'sindihan' (to light something) or 'sumindi' (to be lit). As a noun, it refers to the act or state of being lit.
