What is the difference between 'implement' and 'commence'?

I have a quick question. What is the difference between 'implement' and 'commence'?

The company implemented a plan.

The company commenced a play.

Are these same meanings?



Also, implementing something implies or gives the idea that it is for the first time.  You can start your homework, because it's a routine task that you do often, but each time you do it, you have to "start" it.  Implementing something is more formal and probably a bit compex, and usually involves a plan or a solution to a problem.  You make a plan, then you implement it.

To implement means to make a decision and then take steps to make it happen. There are usually many steps involved. For example, "the government decided to implement the new smoking law but it took a few months to be effective." To commence just means to start something. Its a slightly more formal word than "start". We rarely use it in everyday conversation. I hope this helps.

implement means to put something into effect. commence means to begin or start. they're basically synonyms.
