English Wikipedia - The Free Encyclopedia. Sesquipedal(i)ophobia (alternatively, Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia) is the fear of long words, a branch of logophobia. This term derives from sesquipedalian, which is a long word or a person who uses long words. A person suffering from this phobia is called sesquipedal(i)ophobic.
The Oxford Dictionary uses the word: Hippopotamine to refer to âsomething very largeâ. The word âmonstrâ is the Greek origin of a âmonstrous beingâ or something that is huge or terrifying and sesquippedalio is derived from Greek sesquippedali meaning âmeasuring a foot and a half longâ. Phobos stands for morbid fear.
