EN: to stop flowing; to subside (for a liquid)
This is a very specific 'stop'. It's not for traffic, it's for liquids. When the bleeding from your 'sugat' finally stops, it 'umampat'. When the floodwaters finally go down, they 'umampat'. It's the sigh of relief when something wet and flowing finally ceases.
Almost exclusively used for liquids like blood, water, or other fluids, to mean the flow has stopped or subsided.
🇵🇭 Sa tulong ng gamot, umampat din ang pagdurugo ng kanyang sugat.
🇺🇸 With the help of medicine, the bleeding from his wound finally stopped flowing.
🇵🇭 Hintayin nating umampat ang baha bago tayo lumabas ng bahay.
🇺🇸 Let's wait for the flood to subside before we leave the house.
