FIL: Isang salitang-ugat na tumutukoy sa akto ng pag-uusap o pakikipagtalastasan sa pamamagitan ng salita.
EN: Talk; conversation (as a root word)
This is the root of all chismis. It's the 'U' in 'PM is the key.' On its own, it's just the concept of talking. But add a few affixes, and it becomes a full-blown meeting (pag-uusap), a juicy topic (usap-usapan), or a legal case (usapin). It's the atom of communication.
Rarely used alone. It's almost always found in affixed forms like mag-usap, usapan, pinag-uusapan.
