Another English word usable as an infix is `whole', as in
``But it's a-whole-nother year.''  This is only semi-interesting,
since what is really happening is noncing and resplitting of the
compound word an-other into a-nother.  Nevertheless, at least formally
this is an infix that isn't `fucking', `bloody' or their semantic
equivalent.
