To roll or fold up; to wind round; to entwine. [1913 Webster] Some of serpent kind . . . involved Their snaky folds. --Milton. [1913 Webster] 2. To envelop completely; to surround; to cover; to hide; to involve in darkness or obscurity. [1913 Webster] And leave a sing[`e]d bottom all involved With stench and smoke. --Milton. [1913 Webster] 3. To complicate or make intricate, as in grammatical structure. “Involved discourses.” --Locke. [1913 Webster] 4. To connect with something as a natural or logical consequence or effect; to include necessarily; to imply. [1913 Webster] He knows His end with mine involved. --Milton.

Syn: To imply; include; implicate; complicate; entangle; embarrass; overwhelm. Usage: To Involve, Imply. Imply is opposed to express, or set forth; thus, an implied engagement is one fairly to be understood from the words used or the circumstances of the case, though not set forth in form. Involve goes beyond the mere interpretation of things into their necessary relations; and hence, if one thing involves another, it so contains it that the two must go together by an indissoluble connection. War, for example, involves wide spread misery and death; the premises of a syllogism involve the conclusion. [1913 Webster]
