EN: to realize; to comprehend; to figure out
This is that 'Aha!' moment. It's when you finally figure out the chismis from your officemate's vague posts, or when you finally understand why your code isn't compiling. 'Hindi ko matanto kung bakit ayaw niya sa akin, binigyan ko naman ng Starbucks.'
From 'tanto' (realization, understanding).
Often used in a negative form 'hindi matanto' (cannot figure out). It has a more profound sense than just 'alamin' (to find out).
