Yep, you got it...when an actor literally imagines himself in the shoes of his character and tries to feel each emotion by getting inside the head and under the skin of the character...that is method acting...
It's called method cuz ppl use various means/methods to wrap their heads around a character...some actors try to live in a place they think that character would be living in...eat the food that character would eat, start talking like they think that character would talk...these kind of things...changing your behavior, voice, persona by taking on a character to that degree...that is why method.
