پسوند -phobia


در واقع این پسوند در اخر کلمه میاد و به این معنی هسه معنای ترسی بی مورد هست..کامل تر بخوایم بگیم بنا به تعریف دیکشنری:


An intense, abnormal, or illogical fear of a specified thing

داشتن ترس زیاد- غیرعادی و احمقانه(بی معنی) هستش.

لذا این پسوند به هر کلمه ای که اضافه شود چنین معنای خواهد داشت برای مثال:

Xenophobia: fear or dislike of foreigners

Homophobia: fear of blood

Lesbophobia: fear/dislike of lesbian women

Acrophobia: a morbid fear of heights
​

و البته کلمه ای که من سرچ کردم و نبود Disconphobia هستش که در دیکشنری McMillan به این شکل تعریف شده:

Disconphobia: the fear of being disconnected from work and the Internet, or a person who feels like this​

البته در گوگل که شرچ میکنی عبارت Discophobia رو میده که از ترکیب دو کلمه Disco + Phobia هست.
وا اون کلمه بالا هم از ترکیب Disconnect + Phobia هست.

به هر حال برای دانستن بیشتر کلماتی با این پسوند لینک های زیر رو چک کنید:

مخلص کلام:هر جایی که این پسوند رو در آخر کلمه ای دیدین به معنای کلمه اول ترس رو هم اضاف کنید به این شکل: ترس از + (کلمه مورد نظر)

کلمه دیگه که میخوام معرفی کنم به دوستان:

Winterval​

این اسم هر دو مزیت قابل شمارش و غیر قابل شمارش بودن رو داره...

به معنی:

a period of festivities which takes place in the middle of winter, including Christmas and other religious or secular festivals​

بنا به تعریف WikiPedia این مراسم و جشن ها شامل موارد زیر میشه:

The name "Winterval" was a portmanteau of "winter" and festival coined by the Council's Head of Events, Mike Chubb. In October 2008 he explained:

Quite simply, as Head of events at that time, we needed a vehicle which could cover the marketing of a whole season of events…Diwali (festival of Lights), Christmas lights switch on, BBC Children in Need, Aston Hall by Candlelight, Chinese New year, New Years eve etc. Also a season that included theatre shows and open air ice rink, Frankfurt open air Christmas market and the Christmas seasonal retail offer. Christmas, called Christmas! and its celebration, lay at the heart of Winterval.
​

در واقع به جشن ها و سور و سات ها در دوره زمانی خواصی در فصل زمستان winterval میگن...
