    Usage notes

    [edit]
    • The prefix is productive in German, but only with words and stems borrowed from Latin, Greek, or Romance; not with native Germanic words (unlike English inintertwine,interwind, etc.). The prefixesdurch-,unter-,ver-, andzwischen- are used instead depending on the sense.
