Comments and suggestions are welcome as this is my first post. Will add hints if it is too hard.

Usually there is a hint for the whole word as well to reduce ambiguity.

Correct! May I ask whether this is too easy?
– Kevin L
Aug 13 at 4:43
It's relatively easy, but not too easy. The suffix clue was obvious and there are only a few things the infix could be. Perhaps you could make the clues a little more cryptic in the future, and add a clue for the whole word as wolfram42 suggested.

Probably wrong, but to get the ball rolling
Calculus
Because:
It is abbreviated as Cal, Cul (short for cul de sac) is a dead end. And "us" is 2 letters for "ourselves"

Probably wrong, but to get the ball rolling
Calculus
Because:
It is abbreviated as Cal, Cul (short for cul de sac) is a dead end. And "us" is 2 letters for "ourselves"
