subviral in American English
(sʌbˈvairəl)

Word origin
[1960–65; sub- + viral]This word is first recorded in the period 1960–65. Other words that entered Englishat around the same time include: bicycle kick, buyback, deinstitutionalize, disco, tag questionsub- is a prefix occurring originally in loanwords from Latin (subject; subtract; subvert; subsidy). On this model, sub- is freely attached to elements of any origin and used with the meaning “under,” “below,”“beneath” (subalpine; substratum), “slightly,” “imperfectly,” “nearly” (subcolumnar; subtropical), “secondary,” “subordinate” (subcommittee; subplot)
