In*sert" (?), v. t. [imp. & p. p. Inserted; p. pr. &
vb. n. Inserting.] [L.
insertus, p. p. of inserere to insert; pref. in- in + serere to join, connect. See Series.] To set within
something; to put or thrust
in; to introduce; to cause to enter, or be included, or contained; as, to insert a scion in a stock; to insert a letter, word, or passage in
a composition; to insert an advertisement in a newspaper. These words were very weakly inserted where they will be
so liable to misconstruction. Bp.
Stillingfleet.
