To push something into a small, tight space so it stays there . You tuck your shirt into your pants, or tuck a blanket around a sleeping child so it stays warm and neat. It can also mean to put something away somewhere safe or hidden, like tucking money into your wallet. There is also a warm phrase, 'tuck someone in,' which means to put a child to bed and pull the blanket up around them nicely. In British English, 'tuck in' can also mean to start eating with enthusiasm — 'Tuck in!' a host might say, meaning 'Start eating!'
