EN: to have something custom-made
This is the opposite of 'add to cart.' It's when you go to a tailor to get a Barong Tagalog that fits you perfectly, or commission an artist for a portrait. It's the 'bespoke' life, for when off-the-rack just won't do. More effort, more expensive, but totally worth it.
ROOT MEANING: intentional; purpose
Implies commissioning a specialist (a tailor, carpenter, artist, etc.) to create something unique. The resulting object is called 'pasadya'.
