Origin
The term "interpenetrate" was first used in the 16th century. It is a combination of the Latin prefix "inter-" (meaning "between, among") and the verb "penetrare" (meaning "to penetrate"). The term was originally used to describe the interaction of physical objects, but it has since come to be used more broadly to describe the interaction of ideas, concepts, and other intangible things.
