Ignite means to catch fire or cause something to begin burning,[1][2][3][4][5] often involving the application of heat, spark, or flame. It describes the process of initiating combustion, such as igniting a match, a gas stove, or a pile of dry leaves. In this physical sense, the term marks the moment when flammable material reacts and begins to burn, releasing heat and light.
When something ignites, it can also signify the start of strong emotion, action, or conflict. A speech may ignite public passion, a disagreement might ignite a heated argument, or a breakthrough idea could ignite innovation. This figurative use emphasizes the rapid, often intense onset of energy, emotion, or activity. Whether literal or metaphorical, ignite highlights moments of powerful initiation that set things into motion.
