"Incase is not the same as the phrase “in case.” Incase is a spelling variant of the verb encase and means ‘to enclose’ or ‘cover.’ The phrase “in case” is a conjunction or adverb that introduces a condition, supposition, or stipulation. Because ""incase"" is an alternate spelling of the verb ""encase,"" English writers often confuse it with ""in case."" To encase means to enclose something (like a fence or a yard) or to place something in a case (like a briefcase). ""In case,"" on the other hand, is a phrase derived from the noun ""case,"" which means ""instance,"" ""incidence,"" ""circumstance,"" or ""situation."" Other definitions of ""case"" include grammar, disease, and legal action, but the most common use of ""case"" is to convey a specific event."
