EN: to award; to grant; to confer
This is the verb for graduation day, awards night, or when the pageant host finally announces the winner. 'At ang korona ay igagawad kay...'. It's not just 'giving,' it's 'bestowing.' It's got that formal, ceremonial vibe, like when your boss igawads you the 'Employee of the Month' certificate. It's giving with gravitas.
ROOT MEANING: award; prize; grant
Used for formal bestowing of honors, prizes, or authority. More formal than 'ibigay'.
