EN: to go through a tight space; to wear
This is the verb for squeezing into things. Think of navigating through the packed MRT during rush hour, or a jeepney driver taking a narrow shortcut ('sumuot sa eskinita') to beat traffic. While its root 'suot' also means 'to wear', the verb form 'sumuot' more often emphasizes the 'going into/through' meaning. 'Sinuot' is more commonly used for 'wore'.
ROOT MEANING: to wear; to put on (clothing)
'Sumuot' is often for entering tight spaces. For wearing clothes, 'nagsuot' or 'sinuot' are more common. Ex: 'Nagsuot ako ng jacket.' (I wore a jacket). 'Sumuot ako sa butas.' (I went through the hole).
