inextricably
Beyond any untangling
Inextricably means in a way that cannot be separated or disentangled.
Things bound inextricably are so thoroughly intertwined that pulling them apart is impossible: His fate was inextricably linked to hers.
The word usually describes abstract connections—ideas, histories, identities—rather than physical knots: Politics and economics are inextricably connected.
