What exactly is Abibliophobia?\u00a0It is the fear of running out of reading material.<\/p>\n

\"empty<\/a><\/p>\n

Origin:<\/strong> Phobia<\/em>\u00a0is used both independently and as a suffix to describe an irrational fear of something, and has had increasingly productive use as a suffix in recent years \u2013 it seems possible to create an English term for being frightened of almost anything. For instance, many of us have heard of\u00a0claustrophobia<\/em>\u00a0(fear of confined spaces) and\u00a0agoraphobia<\/em>(fear of open spaces) but what about e.g.\u00a0<\/em>nostophobia<\/em>\u00a0(a fear of returning home), or even coulrophobia<\/em>\u00a0(fear of clowns)? We also have\u00a0bibliophobia<\/em>\u00a0(an irrational fear of books).\u00a0Abibliophobia<\/strong>\u00a0is most likely a made-up\u00a0form of the latter, using morpheme ‘a’ from the Greek meaning\u00a0not<\/em>.<\/p>\n

a- “not” + bibli-(on) “book” + o + phob(os) “fear” + ia, a nominal suffix.<\/strong><\/p>\n
