EN: to do something early or in advance; to be proactive
This is the student who finishes their thesis a month before the deadline. This is you leaving for the airport 5 hours before your flight 'para sure'. It's the opposite of being a 'crammer'. Umagap is the life motto of every Tita who brings baon and a first-aid kit to a picnic. Be prepared, be early.
From the root word 'agap' (promptness, being early) with the infix '-um-'.
Conveys a sense of being proactive and prepared.
