FIL: Ang pagbibigay ng isang utos o gawain sa isang tao.
EN: to command; to order; to send on an errand
This is what your boss does to you at 4:59 PM on a Friday. It's what your nanay does when she sees you just chilling on the sofa ('Hoy, bumili ka nga ng yelo!'). It's the act of delegating, commanding, or simply asking someone to run an errand for you.
From 'utos' (command).
The stress on the second syllable distinguishes it from the noun form.
🇵🇭 Pinapunta niya ako dito para utusan kang bumalik na sa opisina.
