To include or combine something as part of a whole; in business, to form a company that is legally separate from its owners.
From Latin 'incorporare' meaning 'to form into a body', from 'in-' (into) and 'corpus' (body). It originally meant giving something a bodily form.
To incorporate ideas is to ‘put them into the body’ of your work. A corporation is literally a ‘body’ made of people that the law treats almost like a person of its own.
