As you read, they are three words that make sense separately but which are meaningless if together them. Disaffection: Lacking AFE to some person or thing. He does not love or want something. Affliction: Sadness, feel sorry for something; Miss joy. Joy: pleasing feeling of happiness; feeling of being happy; joviality. You can say that "Joy" is "antonym" of "Affliction", and vice versa.
