The slow mental process of thinking about new ideas or information until you really understand them.
Padron ng paggamit:

Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners may not realize this is a formal, figurative use and might try to use it in very casual speech where "time to think" or "time to process" would sound more natural. They may also confuse it with the physical sense and say unclear things like *"My digestion of the book is bad"* instead of "I didn't really understand the book."
