umiyak
to cry

Umiyak ako kagabi.
I cried last  night.

Umiyak ako nang marinig ko ang balita.
I cried when I heard the news.

Bakit ka umiiyak?
Why are you crying?

Huwag kang umiyak.
Don't cry.

Huwag ka nang umiyak.
Don't cry anymore.


Naiiyak na ako.
I'm becoming teary now.

Pinaiyak mo ako.
You made me cry.

Huwag mong paiyakin ang bata.
Don't make the child cry.


nagsi-iyak
a lot of people started to cry altogether

mag-umiyak
to cry at the top of one's voice
