How would one say the word or phrase "overlap"or "overlapping"? I'm trying to write in my Esperanto work-journal about the need for overlapping schedules so that we are prepared with enough workers if it gets busy. I got completely hung up on expressing this word and can't find it in my array of vortaroj.

In a german-esperanto dictionary I found "parte koincidi" for "überschneiden" = "to overlap".

NPIV lists 'imbriki' with the following definition: klinkovri en formo de tegol-arangxo - tegolo is a roof tile.

That seems to cover physical overlapping.

But what's a schedule here? Laborhoroj?

Parte koincidi works well. This is how I would use it:

Mark and John have overlapping schedules.
Marko kaj Johano havas laborhorojn kiuj parte koincidas.

Wells2010 has interkovri (transitive).

And Wells lists 'imbriki' overlap (with)

I've been using the word "horaro" but laborhoroj sounds good too.

It looks like you've found an appropriate single word. "Imbriki". The way roof-tiles overlap is exactly what I'm expressing in talking about the overlapping schedules. How did you find this? The NPIV? I know what the PIV is but what does the N stand for? New?

Looks like I'm going to resume my favorite pastime of collecting more "vortarojn". I was holding off on getting the latest PIV because I'm waiting on the free online version to be completed by the Sennacia Asocio Tutmonda.

I suppose the N stands for Nova.

I happened to have come across the word (imbriki) in Auld's 1998 translation of The Hound of the Baskervilles (page 156).

But from the gloss at the back of the book I think it must have been in use earlier.

I've no idea which language it comes from. You could try asking Google.

Okay, if you too Erinja are using the word 'laborhoroj" then I would guess this has more common usage than "horaro" or laboreja horaro" ect. Right?
