Intersperse


Definition:

  • (v. t.) To scatter or set here and there among other things; to insert at intervals; as, to intersperse pictures in a book.
  • (v. t.) To diversify or adorn with things set or scattered at intervals; to place something at intervals in or among; as, to intersperse a book with pictures.
