A word someone made up to screw with people who are diagnosed with a fear of long words.

Colleague: Oh, she's afraid of long words. Do we even have a word for that? Person who coined the term: You know what we should call it? Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia! Colleague: That's just wrong. |

Ironically, the fear of long words.
"sesquippedalio" relates to long words "phobia" is an irrational fear "hippopoto" and "monstro" (short for hippopotamus and monster) exaggerate the length of the word synonym: sesquippedaliophobia means exactly the same thing alt spellings: "pedalio" instead of "ppedalio" guy: I have hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia. *(guy starts hyperventilating)*
