We are using English from the Roots Up! and part of the lessons is trying to think of words that would come from the roots we are learning.
Phobos (Greek Root for Fear)
Philia (Greek Root for Love)
Here are Tyler's new words.
If you are afraid of love, then you suffer from "Philiphobia" The fear of Love!
If you love to be scared, then you are a "Phobophiliac" Lover of fear!
He's seven, he doesn't care if all of his vocabulary meets Webster's standards.
I haven't looked them up, but I am pretty sure that these are not actual words...
YET!
