**Entwine** → It is formed from "en-" (meaning to cause to be in) and "twine" (from Old English *twīnan*, meaning to twist or turn). The word "entwine" means to cause to be twisted together or to interlace.
Think of causing something to be 'in' a twist — 'en-' means to cause to be in, and 'twine' means to twist. This helps you remember that entwine means to twist things together.
