EN: appreciation; valuation; giving importance
This is what you hope your boss shows you during performance reviews (with a bonus, please). It's what your S.O. wants when they say 'You don't appreciate me!' It's the opposite of being 'seen-zoned.' Pagpapahalaga is knowing someone's worth and acting on it, whether it's for a person, a vintage item, or your mental health.
From pag- (gerund prefix) + pa- (causative prefix) + -pa- (reduplication of first syllable of the root) + halaga (value).
ROOT MEANING: price; value; importance
