^ ignore mine; mamya's is best, but both mean the same thing.

[frugalfred]

Agyrophobia (or Dromophobia) is a case of specific phobia, the irrational fear that crossing roads will cause bodily harm to oneself, even if no actual threat is posed.

[frugalfred]

^Either the D is wrong, or the Y is wrong.

[Mamyalynne]

True.

[DoubtMaster]

'Dromophobia' is the correct one, because "O" from 'my word' got me confused with 'Agyrophobia'.

Thanks so much.

[frugalfred]

Sorted, then.

[DoubtMaster]

Yes, thank you - Frugalfred

[Mamyalynne]

Well done and good luck.
