Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
Derived from the Latin adverb 'interim', meaning 'meanwhile', which comes from 'inter' (between) plus the adverbial suffix '-im'. Entering the English language in the late 16th century, it initially retained its exact temporal sense of an intervening period before expanding to describe temporary appointments or provisions.
