Root Explanation

Interfolded → It is formed from "inter-" (meaning between) and "folded" (from the root "fold" which comes from Old English "fealdan", meaning to bend or to double). The word describes something that is folded in between layers or parts.

Memory Tip

Think of something being 'bent' or 'doubled' ('fold') 'between' ('inter-') other layers — that's what interfolded means.
