          "lu" is what comes after "a" in aluminum

          xor is another logical operator




          Suffix




          "y" as "why"




          When said aloud, the combination sounds like

          which is pleasing to those who have it.

          I thought that I had an alternative solution. Then I noticed that it is slightly misspelled. But I still feel it is close enough that it can be posted.



          Prefix




          "lu" is what comes after "a" in aluminum




          Infix




          xor is another logical operator




          Suffix




          "y" as "why"
