A quick definition of commander-in-chief:

A commander-in-chief is the person who is in charge of all the armed forces. In the United States, the President is also the commander-in-chief of the military. This means that the President is the leader of the military and makes important decisions about how to keep the country safe. The Constitution says that the President is the commander-in-chief, which is a very important job.

A more thorough explanation:

A commander-in-chief is a person who has the highest command of the armed forces. This means they are in charge of making important decisions about military operations and strategies. In the United States, the President is also known as the commander-in-chief when they are leading the nation's military.

For example, during times of war, the President may make decisions about where to send troops and how to respond to enemy attacks. They work closely with military leaders to ensure the safety and success of the armed forces.

A commandment is an authoritative order given by a judge or other official. It can also refer to the act of persuading someone to commit a crime.

For example, a judge may issue a commandment for a person to appear in court or to follow certain rules while on probation. On the other hand, someone who convinces another person to commit a crime is guilty of the commandment offense.
