Talk:hysteroid

Tea room discussion
The etymology of hysteroid is a simple hystero- prefix + -oid suffix. Do we have a prefix/suffix template like and, i.e.  which we can use like e.g. ? This template would auto-add the terms to new categories such Category:English words suffixed with “-oid” and Category:English words prefixed with “-hystero”. --Jackofclubs 19:34, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

 * doesn't so categorize. I agree it oughta. Unless and until it does, oughtn't categorize as , which would mean (I think) that you can just use  for words like hysteroid.—msh210 ℠ 18:06, 14 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Template:prefixsuffix now created as redirect to Template:confix (easier to type). Said template should be suitable for cases such as this, as well as for any examples of "true" confixation (simultaneous addition of prefix and suffix) which may crop up.  (I have seen words like "hysteroid" referred to as confixes, but it doesn't seem common; not sure what they are called ordinarily.) Please revise template as needed. -- Visviva 16:34, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
