Create, initiate (9)
I believe the answer is:
originate
I believe this is a double definition.
'create' is the first definition.
(originating is a kind of creating)
'initiate' is the second definition.
(I know that initiate can be written as originate)
(Other definitions for originate that I've seen before include "Set up" , "Come into existence" , "Arise, start" , "pioneer" , "Cause to begin, be the first" .)
