inextricably

/ˌɪˈnɛkstɹɪˌkəbɫi/ adv B2

in a way that is impossible to untangle or escape

Word Origin From Latin tricae 'perplexities, trifles' — originally little hindrances that entangle you. Extricate means 'get out of tangles', so inextricably means so tangled you can't get free. The same root gives us trick (a deception that entangles) and trifle (a small, trivial thing). You can almost see the knots.
