  • My prefix is in affirmation
  • My suffix in its full form is filled with folklore
  • My infix was discovered
  • My circumfix keeps you up to date
  • My transfix might be bought when you're out with friends
  • My whole is far below the surface

Circumfix: {hel}blabla{lo}

Transfix: bl{gr}ab{een}la
