Uuaphobia 

you·a·foe·bee·a
Noun.

The severe dislike and perhaps inexplainable fear of using the letter 'u' in select words in the English Language.
Americans suffer from a horrid case of Uuaphobia. It has roots in their culture and history, and causes trauma deep in their psyche. It cannot be determined if it is a true fear, or just sheer laziness that prevents the letter 'u' being included in words such as 'Colour' and 'Harbour'.

It is common, yet stereotypical knowledge that Americans are fat and lazy. 'Aiming a gun during wartime' and 'walking' seem to be a handful of life's little annoyances they have tried to cure, as seen by inventions such as Friendly Fire and the Segway.

Bill: He suffers from "Urbaphobia." He got it one day when he said "Oh, like a mini van?" and everyone busted out laughing. He was told to look it up on Urban Dictionary and after he did, he feared saying anything ever again. I guess you could call him an urbaphobe?!

Word of the Day on October 4, 2026
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
