Abstract

In 1985, Alfred Lubran completed a 228-page book entitled Fears Phobias Philias Loves Manias Hates and Hurts (Human Behaviour), a compilation of lists of words accompanied by the briefest of descriptions. The following article excerpts the odder terms from one such list; if Word Ways readers welcome this, other such lists will be published in later issues.
