A quick definition of call to order:

A call to order is when someone in charge of a meeting or assembly asks everyone to come together and start the meeting. It's like a signal that tells everyone it's time to begin. During a call to order, the person in charge might also remind everyone to follow the rules and behave properly. In some cases, a call to order might also be used to check if there are enough people present to make important decisions.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A request or command for a meeting to begin and follow its order of business.

Example: In a parliamentary meeting, the chairperson says "I call this meeting to order" to indicate that the meeting has officially started and members should follow the agenda.

Explanation: The example illustrates how a call to order is used to start a meeting and ensure that it follows its order of business. It is important to have a call to order to establish the meeting's purpose and to ensure that everyone is aware of the agenda and what is expected of them.
