I personally have no dislike of "big" or "long" words. It is just obscure words that 99.9% of readers would not understand I avoid. For example; grandgousier

Did you know there is a word for that? Sort of...

Logophobia, fear of words...but wait, there's more

Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia- Fear of long words

:heeheehee

And here I thought all these years I was afraid of Logs and Hippos.

I only fear the word "No!". Often said with a ! at the end.
