Sequences of adfixes (prefixes or suffixes) do not result in infixes: an infix must be internal to a word stem. Thus, the word originally, formed by adding the suffix -ly to original, does not turn the suffix -al into an infix. There is simply a sequence of two suffixes, origin-al-ly.

This is a list of roots, suffixes, and prefixes used in medical terminology, their meanings, and their etymologies. Most of them are combining forms in Neo-Latin and hence international scientific vocabulary. There are a few general rules about how they combine.
means that "x is an element of A". [1] Equivalent expressions are " x is a member of A ", " x belongs to A ", " x is in A " and " x lies in A ". The expressions " A includes x " and " A contains x " are also used to mean set membership, although some authors use them to mean instead " x is a subset of A ". [ 2 ]
