It is the fear of trains, of traveling on them, of their formations, of seeing them pass, . . . This is one of the cases in which the effort of doctors and linguists to adjust an impossible etymology (unlike others such as consecotaleophobia, hypopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia, nomophobia, contreltophobia, transphobic where they put anything) is valued. We all know that phobias have names of Greek origin, and that in ancient Helade there was no railway, so when mentioning this pathology the psychiatrist Sigmund Freud called it in German esenbahnangst, for eisenbahn ("railway") angst ("fear"), until someone had an inspiration and translated into Greek each of its components. Thus it was as 963; 953; 948; 951; 961; 959; 962; ( sideros ), which surely Greek took from some other language for "iron, iron", 948; 961; 959; 956; 959; 962; (dromos) for "track, lane, running path", and 966; 959; 946; 959; 962; (fovos) which is "fear, fear". See philately.
It is a "phobia of jumping from a higher place". Etymologically it would be the fear of going down a step or jump to a level that is lower, and comes from the Greek 954; 945; 964; 945; ( katá "down, down, back" ) 960; 951; 948; 945; 969; ( pedáooo "jump" ) 966; 959; 946; 959; 962; ( fovos "fear") .
More than a phobia is an anxiety disorder that a person suffers from the possibility or the fact of not depending on something or someone who makes decisions about their life, in many cases because they feel unable to do it for themselves. During the nineteenth century the definition was more literal, as this "fear of freedom" was common among freed slaves who did not know how to perform alone in society. The etymology is Greek, by 949; 955; 949; 965; 952; 949; 961; 959; 962; ( eleútheros "free" ) 966; 959; 946; 959; 962; ( fovos "fear") . See dysaethesia aethiopica, drapetomania.
It is the fear of sitting down, for supporting the . . . body on something, for being at a lower height or for some phobia associated with the chair itself.

It is the fear of a surface with many repeated holes as in a pattern, or any similar shape; although it does not seem to be really a phobia but rather a rejection, a discomfort. It is taken from the Greek 964; 961; 965; 960; 945; ( trypa "hole, drill" ) 966; 959; 946; 959; 962; ( fovos "fear") . ¡
