Have you noticed how our moods seem to intercorrelate sometimes?

Yeah, it's interesting how we can feel similar emotions at the same time.

I wonder if it's just a coincidence or if there's something deeper to it.

Could be! It's like we have this unspoken connection.

Root Explanation

Intercorrelate → It is formed from "inter-" (meaning between) and "correlare" (meaning to relate). The word describes the action of relating or connecting things with each other in a mutual or reciprocal manner.

Memory Tip

Think of things that 'relate' ('correlare') to each other 'between' ('inter-') — that's why intercorrelate means to relate things mutually.
