   or in the body of a word, to modify its meaning.

Solution 3:

Like the other answers mentioned, the general word referring to prefixes, suffixes and similar, is affix. However, Wikipedia also mentions adfix as joint name for prefixes and suffixes but not any other kind of affix:

It [infix] contrasts with adfix, a rare term for an affix attached to the end of a stem, such as a prefix or suffix.

See the definition of adfix in Wiktionary.
