Question

Two words "alternade" if taking alternating letters from each forms a new word. Write a function 'is_interlocked' that takes a word as input and checks if two or more meaningful words can be formed by this word (subwords need not be of the same length). For example: TOTAL = 'schooled', forms ONE = 'shoe' and TWO = 'cold'. TOTAL ='lacerated', forms ONE = 'let', TWO = 'are' and THREE ='cad'.
