WOW! - week 9

IMPLEMENT- as a verb, it means to put into practical effect, to bring about. It sounds much better to say that you implemented a policy sponsored by your boss rather than to say that you did what you were told.
A couple of years ago, my job title was "Implementor". In that case it meant to install and customize a software product.
IMPLEMENT is also a noun meaning a tool used in doing work.
A spade is a gardening implement.

-from the Latin Implere - to fill up.
