It depends a bit on context. Often what you mean is that you create a 
function or construct in one language that invokes a function from 
another language. Or it can mean the general action of taking a function 
from one evironment and expose it to another environment by enclosing it 
in a function or other construct (these environments may or may not be 
different languages, APIs, or libraries). It can also mean the action of 
enclosing a function in an closure, anonymous function or a block, 
depending a bit on what language or languages you're talking about. To 
determine exactly what is meant, one would need to know more of the context.
