+ ==Etymology==
+ It is formed from [[m|la|in-|t=in]] and [[m|la|colō|t=to till; to dwell]].^(OLD 2012)^(Wiktionary) De Vaan traces ⟨colō⟩ to [[itc-pro|*kʷele/o-]] and [[ine-pro|*kʷelh₁-e/o-|t=to go round]], cognate with [[sa|चरति|tr=cárati|t=moves, walks]] and [[grc|πέλομαι|tr=pélomai|t=to move, be]]; the /e/ became /o/ after the initial /kʷ/.^(de Vaan 2008)

+ Used transitively it is to inhabit or live in a place, as Cicero's people who lived on Delos, and used intransitively to dwell or reside.^(OLD 2012)^(Lewis & Short 1879)^(Wiktionary) Döderlein notes that ''incolere'' is transitive and refers to the country of which one is a citizen or inhabitant, while ''habitāre'' is intransitive and refers to one's house.^(Döderlein 1874)
