   verb

   formal or dated: to interfere officiously in matters that are not one's concern

   The ministry promised not to intermeddle in the company's day-to-day management.

From Middle English entremedlen, borrowed from Anglo-French entremedler, literally 'to mix among', from entre- ('between, among') + medler ('to mix; meddle'). The modern sense narrowed to unwelcome interference.
