Verb

pêrcayakan (active memercayakan, passive dipercayakan)

Usage notes

The active form is sometimes mempercayakan (probably influenced by the fact that the first syllable of the word is similar to the causative prefix per-, which is not affected by nasal mutation of meng-), but it's proscribed.
