EN: assassination; murder
This isn't just regular murder; this is the stuff of headlines and history books. Think Rizal, Ninoy Aquino, or a character in a crime thriller. It's a calculated, often political, killing. It’s murder with a capital 'M' and a Wikipedia page.
Carries more weight and formality than 'pagpatay'. It often implies a premeditated and significant killing.
