The midfix -izz- is used as an embellishment to add syllables to words, perhaps for purposes of meter. When context allows, sometimes the remainder of the word is actually omitted.
Regular: "I'm going out to walk the dog."
Instead: "I'm going out to wizzalk the dizzog!"
Or: "I'm going out to wizz the dizz!"

Addition: sometimes when using the option to drop the rest of the word, "-izzle" is used instead of "-izz".
From below... "I'm going izzle to wizzle the dizzle!"

The midfix -izz- is used as an embellishment to add syllables to words, perhaps for purposes of meter. It is added after the initial consonant, or if the word begins with a vowel, at the very beginning. When context allows, sometimes the remainder of the word is actually omitted.

Instead: "I'm going izzout to wizzalk the dizzog!"
Or: "I'm going izz to wizz the dizz!"

Clarification: the -izz- is placed after the initial consonant, or if the word begins with a vowel, at the beginning of the word.
"Ow, I banged my arm!"
"Ow, I bizzanged my izzaarm!"
"Ow, I bizzed my izz"
