What word would you use to describe a added in the middle of another word?

There isn't one single perfect word to describe something "added in the middle of another word". However, depending on the context, several words could be suitable:

* Infix: This is the most technical term, specifically referring to a morpheme (meaningful unit) inserted within a word.

* Inserted: This is a general term that describes something placed within something else.

* Interpolated: This word suggests that something has been inserted into an existing sequence, often with the intention of changing its meaning or emphasis.

* Embedded: This implies that the inserted element is fully integrated into the surrounding word.

* Interjected: This implies that something has been suddenly inserted, perhaps abruptly or unexpectedly.

The best word to use will depend on the specific situation and the intended meaning.
