Study of Islam Improves Vocabulary

The study of Islam is improving my vocabulary.

I thought I had invented two new words yesterday, but, alas, I hadn't.


Freedophobia: An irrational fear of freedom or liberty. Related words: freedophobic, freedophobe

(I googled it and found ONE return: See link.)


Gynophobia: An irrational fear of women. Related words: gynophobic, gynophobe


(Google that and see what you come up with.)

Here are some more I found:


Judeophobia: An irrational fear of Judaism or Jews. Related words: judeophobic, judeophobe


Christophobia: An irrational fear of Christianity or Christians. Related words: christophobic, christophobe
