EN: to start; to begin
This is the "go signal" word. Like when your team lead says, "Okay guys, simulan na natin ang meeting," and everyone suddenly pretends to have been working the whole time. It's the opposite of "sana all tapos na."
ROOT MEANING: beginning, start, origin
The -an suffix makes it an object-focused verb, meaning the action is done *to* something. `Simulan mo na ang pagkain` (Start eating the food).
