editEtymology
editFrom Old Galician-Portuguese entre, from Latin inter.
The alternative form ontre, rare in Old Portuguese proper but well attested in Old Galician (Cantigas de Santa Maria), and rendered as unter in local Medieval Latin, derives probably[1] from Suevic [Term?], from Proto-Germanic *under: compare Old High German unter (“among, between”).

Usage notes
edit- Unlike most Spanish prepositions, entre governs the nominative and not the prepositional case when used with pronouns:
- entre yo y mi hermano ― between me and my brother
- entre tú y ellos ― between you and them
- Because se does not exist in the nominative, however, the normal prepositional form sí is used instead:
- entre sí ― among themselves
- entre sí mismo y sus amigos ― between himself and his friends
