Etymology
The term 'interlink' is derived from the prefix 'inter-', meaning 'between' or 'among', and the word 'link', which comes from Old Norse 'lynk', meaning 'to bind' or 'tie'. The word began to see use in the English language around the late 20th century, primarily in contexts related to technology and systems theory, where it described the relationship between various components that work in conjunction to achieve a common goal. As the digital age expanded, the term gained prominence in discussions of networks, both digital and social, to signify the interconnectedness of various entities. In contemporary usage, it often refers to the critical nature of relations and connections in an increasingly complex and interdependent world.
