interrelated
UK: ˌɪntərɪˈleɪtɪd | US: ˌɪntərɪˈleɪtɪd
adj. connected or linked in a mutual or reciprocal relationship
adj. having a shared or interdependent connection
The word "interrelated" combines the prefix inter- (from Latin inter, meaning "between") with the verb relate (from Latin relatus, past participle of referre, meaning "to bring back" or "connect"). The suffix -ed turns it into an adjective, indicating a state of being connected. The term reflects the idea of multiple elements influencing or depending on one another, evolving from literal "bringing back between" to abstract mutual connections.
