EN: act of showing; demonstration; appearance
This can mean a lot of things. It can be a 'powerpoint presentation' kind of showing. It can be a 'pagpapakita ng motibo' (showing of motive) like in a crime show. It can be 'pagpapakita ng pagmamahal' (showing of love) by giving your S.O. the last siomai. Or, in horror movies, it's the ghost's main event—the 'pagpapakita' that makes everyone scream.
From pag- (gerund prefix) + papaki- (causative prefix) + ta from kita (to see). 'The act of causing to be seen'.
ROOT MEANING: to see
Very versatile. Can mean a literal showing, a demonstration of a skill or emotion, or a supernatural appearance.
