EN: Dedication, appointment, consecration
Think of it as leveling up. It's when you're officially "the one". Like when your boss finally promotes you, or when you dedicate your new song to your crush. It's the official announcement that something or someone is now set for a special purpose, like dedicating a new building or appointing a new cabinet secretary. It's the "Ikaw na!" moment, but with paperwork.
From "pag-" (verbal noun prefix) + "talaga" (originally meaning 'to appoint' or 'to destine').
ROOT MEANING: to assign; to dedicate; to ordain
Can refer to dedicating a work of art, appointing someone to a position, or consecrating a place.
