A quick definition of include:

Include: To have something as a part of something else. For example, a list of things might include apples, bananas, and oranges. This means that those three fruits are part of the list, but there might be other fruits that are not listed. Sometimes people use the word "including" to show that they are only listing some things, but there might be more things that are not listed.

Namely: This word is used to show that someone is specifically mentioning something. For example, if someone says "I have two favorite colors, namely blue and green," they are saying that those are the only two colors they consider their favorites.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: To contain as a part of something.

The word "including" is often used to indicate a partial list of things that are included. For example, "The recipe includes flour, sugar, and eggs." This means that there may be other ingredients not listed, but these are the main ones.

Some people use phrases like "including without limitation" or "including but not limited to" to mean the same thing. These phrases indicate that there may be other things included that are not specifically listed.

Example: The party favors included balloons, stickers, and candy.

This means that there were other party favors besides these three, but these were the ones specifically mentioned.

Example: The job requirements include a college degree and three years of experience.

This means that there may be other requirements not listed, but these are the main ones.

Related term: Namely

The word "namely" is used to indicate specific things that are included. For example, "The ingredients, namely flour, sugar, and eggs, are mixed together." This means that these are the only ingredients used.
