EN: to author; to compose (a literary piece)
Basically, to write something and be its official creator. It's what Jose Rizal did with Noli Me Tángere. It's what your favorite Wattpad author does. If you've ever written a whole dramatic 'script' in your head for an argument that will probably never happen, you've technically 'umakda' a one-act play.
Mula sa salitang-ugat na 'akda' (literary work) at unlaping '-um-'.
ROOT MEANING: literary work, composition, creation
Used primarily in formal, academic, or literary contexts.
