What does the verb form umorder tell me (aspect and voice)?

Umorder uses the um- affix in actor focus and is in the completed (perfective) aspect, so it means the ordering already happened. Its common aspect set:

• Completed: umorder
• Progressive/Imperfective: umuorder
• Future/Contemplated: oorder

Is umorder the only natural verb, or should I use mag-/nag-order?

Both patterns are natural and common in modern Filipino for the loan root order.

• With um-: umorder (completed), umuorder (progressive), oorder (future)
• With mag-/nag-: nag-order (completed), nag-o-order (progressive), mag-o-order (future) Choice is style/region/register; all are widely understood.

Why is it din and not rin?

Use rin after a vowel sound and din after a consonant sound. Umorder ends in the consonant sound r, so din is the standard choice: Umorder din... (Many speakers mix them in casual speech, but this is the textbook rule.)
