Usage Note
Ininterrumpido is a formal adjective describing something that continues without any break or pause — un flujo ininterrumpido (an uninterrupted flow) or trabajo ininterrumpido (non-stop work). It is notably long — one of Spanish's longer adjectives — which makes it more common in formal writing. The prefix in- (not) + interrumpido (interrupted) makes its meaning transparent.
Examples
"Trabajaron durante horas ininterrumpidas."
Natural Translation
They worked for uninterrupted hours.
