Why this word is great
VOLVE — [Verb] To turn over in the mind; to ponder. From Latin volvēre ("to turn"), the root of revolution and evolution, carrying the same restless motion into the realm of thought. Unlike "contemplate" (which implies prolonged, deliberate stillness) or "reflect" (which suggests a mirror-like calm), to volve is to engage in the active, almost tactile work of mental rotation—a stone polished by friction, a leaf tumbling in eddies of wind, or the slow, inevitable grind of tectonic plates shifting beneath the surface of consciousness. It is the mind’s way of wearing smooth the rough edges of an idea, until it fits neatly in the palm of understanding.
