Root Explanation

Interlacement → It is formed from "inter-" (meaning between) and "lacem" (from Latin "lacere", meaning to weave). The word describes the act of weaving things together in a manner that they are interwoven or intertwined.

Memory Tip

Think of things being woven 'between' each other — 'inter-' means between, and 'lacem' relates to weaving. This helps you remember that interlacement refers to the way things are woven together.
