ignitions
Car starting systems
Ignitions is the plural of ignition, which in its most common sense refers to the system or moment that starts an engine running.
When you turn a car key or push a start button, you're engaging the ignition.
More broadly, ignition is the act or process of setting something on fire or causing combustion.
The ignitions on both vehicles failed in the cold weather.
In figurative use, ignition can describe what sparks or initiates something: the ignitions of revolutionary movements across the region.
