To tailor; to make or finish clothing; to prepare; to train someone for a role.

A Group 2 (ichidan) verb combining 仕 (to perform, to work) and 立てる (to set up, to build). Its core meaning is tailoring garments to specification, but it extends to training or preparing a person for a particular role, or constructing something with deliberate skill. The nuance of craftsmanship and intentional shaping distinguishes it from simpler verbs like 作る.
