EN: to braid; to get entangled
Literally, it's what you do to your hair to get that Katniss Everdeen look. Metaphorically, it's what happens to your life when you try to date two people from the same 'barkada'. Things get 'sumalapid'—tangled, complicated, and messy. Just like your earphones in your pocket.
Can be used literally for braiding or figuratively for becoming complicated or intertwined.
