The meaning of ‘engage’
I can’t figure out what ‘engages’ in the next sentence means. Could anyone help me?
Empathy is an active, thoughtful process in which one person fully engages another with the goal of better understanding that person’s inner world of thoughts, feelings, and intentions.
(additional question) I’ve written ‘Could anyone help me?’ Is ‘Could someone help me?’ better?
