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{{prefix}} and{{suffix}}, 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.

For example, the derivations ofneurogenic andbedewed can be written:

1. {{confix|en|neuro|genic}}
2. {{confix|en|be|dew|ed}}

Which generates:

1. neuro- +‎-genic
2. be- +‎dew +‎-ed

Note this is not the same as

{{confix|en|neuro|gen|ic}}

Which generates:

neuro- +‎gen +‎-ic sincegen does not have a meaning tied togene but rather links togeneration

In contrast,{{compound}} 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.
