Etymology: The verb "interact" is formed from the prefix "inter-", meaning "between" or "among", and the verb "act," from Latin "agere," "to do or drive." Its literal sense is therefore "to act between" or "to act upon one another," which is why the modern meaning of mutual exchange fits it so neatly. The compound itself is a plain English formation, built from familiar parts rather than inherited from an older word. The "inter-" prefix was productive in English from the 17th century onward, and "interact" appears in print in the early 1800s, in the sense of two things acting on each other. The "-ed" ending simply marks the past tense or past participle of the verb.
