- 1其間的(時間)。典型說法是「其間的歲月/那段時間」。
Here intervening is about time. The intervening years, days, or months are the stretch that sits between two events — after the first thing happened and before the second. “In the intervening years she moved abroad” means during that middle stretch of time. It is a quiet, slightly formal word; in speech people often just say “in between” or “during that time.” You will meet it a lot in news and history writing, where a writer jumps from one date to another and needs a word for the years in the middle. Though actually, the same spelling can also mean a person into a fight or a problem. This entry is only the time sense.
From the word’s history
Inflection of intervene, a back-formation from intervention and/or from Latin interveniō 'come between'.
intervene 加 -ing;源自拉丁文 interveniō「來到中間」。
組成intervene + -ing. The time sense is the adjective use: the years that come in between.
