EN: greatness, nobility, heroism
This is the stuff of heroes. It's what we attribute to Jose Rizal, Andres Bonifacio, and all the OFWs we call 'bagong bayani'. It's not just being good; it's being monumentally, historically, 'they'll-name-a-street-after-you' great. It's the ultimate achievement unlocked.
From ka- + dakila + -an.
