The act of affixing something, or something that has been attached or joined to another object.
From affix plus the suffix -ure (from Latin -ura), which forms nouns indicating an action, state, or result. Similar construction to fixture. Rare in modern usage.
The suffix -ure gave us dozens of words (exposure, mixture, departure), and 'affixture' shows how English lets you combine roots flexibly—but most combinations don't survive if people stop using them.
