Template:confix/documentation

For use in the Etymology sections of words which consist of only a prefix and a suffix, or which were formed by simultaneous application of a prefix and a suffix to another element.

This template essentially combines the functions of and, using the “con-” prefix to show both characteristics are combined. The first element is treated as a prefix, whereas the last element is treated as a suffix; an entry in which this template is transcluded will be added automatically to those affixes’ derivation categories.

Examples
For example, the derivations of and  can be written: Which generates:

Note this is not the same as
 * Which generates:
 * since gen does not have a meaning tied to gene but rather links to generation
 * since gen does not have a meaning tied to gene but rather links to generation

In contrast, adds the entry in which it is used to categories of the form "[Language name] compounds". It is intended for true compounds where neither the first nor the second term are affixes.

Optional arguments

 * t1, t2, t3: Glosses (the 't' stands for "translation")
 * tr1, tr2, tr3: Transliteration of word 1, word 2, word 3 respectively (for non-Latin scripts)
 * sc: Script code. See Scripts.
 * alt1, alt2, alt3: Alternate (display) text.
 * 1
 * Suppresses categorization
