Ad interim (ad int) is Latin for "temporarily" or "in the meantime". It also refers to a diplomatic officer who acts in place of an ambassador, as in the term "chargé d'affaires ad interim".
Examples from classic literature:
No; but she has become queen of Paris, ad interim, and since she could not venture at once to establish herself in the Palais Royal or the Tuileries, she is installed at the Hotel de Ville, where she is on the point of giving an heir or an heiress to that dear duke.
– "Twenty Years After" by Alexandre Dumas
Ad interim, if I may be pardoned that expression, I shall give you this betel-box, which is highly valuable article and cost me two rupees only four years ago.
– "Kim" by Rudyard Kipling
