different between intro vs extra

English

Etymology

Clipping of introduction, from Latin intr?ducti? (“lead-in, introduction”) – the abbreviation removes the second part of the compound; the first part ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *h?énteros (“inner, what is inside”). The demoscene sense comes from the fact that they were originally prepended to pirated copies of computer games.

Noun

intro (plural intros)
