Yes but I don't care. You can still say it... BEE-fucking-soo. It doesn't flow as well as Fucking Bisu, but I never claimed it to do so nor was it my intent to give a definitive list of perfect uses of this technique. | ||

If you are okay with complete failure then I suppose you can say whatever you want. | ||

EDIT: Although I will give you credit, this was more of a "nitpicking" act than a dissection. | ||

Infixation isn't a typical property typologically speaking, so to call it 'infixation' is a little more difficult for the linguistic community to accept. This is so no true. Firstly, while infixation isn't a typical property OF ENGLISH, it is a very robust morphological process in many many other languages, notably arabic where many root words consist of a 3 constant string and vowels are infixed. (Edit: I just thought of something else--infixation is a common process in ludlings/word games/pig latin as well) Stuff about morphology you probably don't care about: + Show Spoiler + Sidenote, really all that infixation means is that you have your root word and you have your "other stuff" which aren't quite words but sort of means things, aka morphemes, like the -s for plural for instance and in English. You gotta stick that shit somewhere and you have three options "beginning, middlesomewhere, and end". In English all inflectional morphemes (things like -s, -ing, they don't make a new word but they made it plural or progressive or something) go at the end. There are also derivational morphemes--parts of words that kinda sorta mean things but can't easily be added onto words--ie "pre" or "con", you sort of have the idea that pre means before and con means against but it would take you a while to realize that. Those mostly all go at the beginning. All infixes are are some languages like dumping shit in the middle of their words so instead of "bobcats", they'd do it like "bobscat". Some languages like doing things that way--I'm sure some of our readers who speak other languages than English are like that. Sign Languages: + Show Spoiler + Sign Languages don't necessarily have to obey this rule as you could simultaneous mark your morphological structure. They could also do it the other way, but they will often opt for a simultaneous strategy. Secondly I have no idea why you think that bloody is "unconfirmed" in British English. It happens. Also in British you sometimes get "blooming" inserted. In American English at least you can also infix other words that are less vulgur such as flippin (fan-flipping-tastic) or god damn "a-god damn-mazing". Also when you are thinking of doing this in your own language that's not English, try using native curse words and at least 3 syllable words. It doesn't work in English either if you use some words *Tex-fucking-as. | ||

Goatfucker would be closer to kozloy'op (or kozli if you wanted it to be at least partially feminine in root), pretty clever though lol. Thanks btw :p It's not hard though when you are born with it. Learning it as a second language is REALLY tough. | ||

pidoras (пидора́с), a bastardization of pederast, meaning a male homosexual in Russian. You're right with the goat though  | ||
