'interconnect' originates from Latin, specifically the word 'interconnectere,' where 'inter-' meant 'between' and 'connectere' meant 'to bind together.'

'interconnectere' transformed into the French word 'interconnecter,' and eventually became the modern English word 'interconnect' through Middle English.

Initially, it meant 'to bind between,' but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'to link or join together.'
