EN: to have something built; to erect
The act of commissioning something to be built. "Boss, **patindig** naman ako ng three-story house na may infinity pool." It's the "pa-" prefix doing its magic again, turning the root word "tindig" (to stand) into a request to make something stand.
From pa- prefix indicating causation/request + tindig (to stand).
ROOT MEANING: posture
Often used as `magpatindig` or `ipatindig` for the full verb form.
