Other forms: interactions
If you interact with someone — by talking, looking, sharing, or engaging in any kind of action that involves the two of you — you can be said to have had an interaction with that person.
Interaction comes from Latin inter meaning «between,» and ago meaning «to do» or «to act» — any “action between” is considered an interaction, like the interaction between a teacher and a student, two countries, or even baking soda and vinegar (boom!).
Definitions of interaction
-
noun
