Morphology

interframe = frame (transparent) = inter + frame

The time-interval sense 'between frames' is a direct semantic composition of 'inter-' + 'frame', so learners can infer it from the components.

Etymology

Interframe comes from the parts inter- 'between' and frame, so it refers to the time or interval 'between' two consecutive frames in a video or animation. That's why changing the interframe changes how smooth or fast the motion looks.
