FIL: Maintindihan o maabot ng isip ang kahulugan, katwiran, o kalikasan ng isang bagay.
EN: to understand
The goal of every "hugot" post, every cryptic tweet, and every parent's lecture. It's more than just hearing; it's about getting it, feeling it in your soul. "Sana'y umunawa ka kung bakit kailangan kong umalis." — a classic line from every Filipino movie breakup scene.
ROOT MEANING: understanding; comprehension
A deeper form of understanding than 'maintindihan'. It implies comprehension on an empathetic or intellectual level.
