Commix

/kəˈmɪks/ verb

Definition

To mix together; to blend or combine different things into one mixture.

Etymology

From Latin commixere, from com- 'together' + miscere 'to mix'. The word is archaic or literary, largely replaced by modern terms like mix, blend, or combine.

Kelly Says

Commix survives mainly in legal documents and old literature, but it's a beautiful word that emphasizes the thoroughness of mixing—com- means 'with/together' in a way that regular 'mix' doesn't quite capture.
