FIL: Sunugin ang isang bagay hanggang sa ito ay maging abo o maubos nang tuluyan.
EN: to burn completely, to incinerate
What you want to do with all the evidence of your cringe teenage photos. To supukin is to burn something so thoroughly there's nothing left but dust and regret. Think of it as the final stage after 'sunugin'. It's total annihilation by fire.
From the root 'supok', meaning to be consumed by fire or smoke.
ROOT MEANING: burnt smell (of rice)
Implies a more intense and complete burning than the more common 'sunugin'.
