Commixture

/kəˈmɪkstʃər/ noun

Definition

A mixture or blend of different things combined together; the state of being mixed.

Etymology

From Latin commixtura, from commixture (com- 'together' + mixtura 'mixture'). Emerged in Middle English as a more formal alternative to simple mixture.

Kelly Says

Commixture is the sophisticated version of mixture—it implies something more intimate and thorough, as if the elements have become genuinely unified rather than just temporarily combined.
