{To commit a bill} (Legislation), to refer or intrust it to a committee or others, to be considered and reported.
{To commit to memory}, or {To commit}, to learn by heart; to memorize.
Syn: {To Commit}, Intrust, Consign.
Usage: These words have in common the idea of transferring from one s self to the care and custody of another. Commit is the widest term, and may express only the general idea of delivering into the charge of another; as, to commit a lawsuit to the care of an attorney; or it may have the special sense of intrusting with or without limitations, as to a superior power, or to a careful servant, or of consigning, as to writing or paper, to the flames, or to prison. To intrust denotes the act of committing to the exercise of confidence or trust; as, to intrust a friend with the care of a child, or with a secret. To consign is a more formal act, and regards the thing transferred as placed chiefly or wholly out of one s immediate control; as, to consign a pupil to the charge of his instructor; to consign goods to an agent for sale; to consign a work to the press. [1913 Webster]
