Words used in medical terminology (Like many areas of science) were made using specific latin roots for a reason you numpty, and the reason why is so the definition is clear and set, and there won’t be some idiot insisting a word means something it doesn’t.
Take hypoglycemia for example. Hypo: Low Glyc: Sugar -emia: In blood.
Just try to divine what hypoglycemia could POSSIBLY mean given that information. It’s a bit more than a fucking hint.
Dermatitis? Derma: Skin -itis: Inflammation. Sweet JESUS what ever could dermatitis mean?!?!?
Next you’re going to tell me pericarditis, containing the roots Peri (Around) Card (Heart, Cardio) -itis (inflammation) means inflammation around the heart! Insanity!
So what ever in WORLD could a medical condition named HYDROPHOBIA ever mean?
Well you are both assholes for being so onbnoxious to eaxh other but both have valid points. You missed addressing phobia upstairs, which all contradict you.
Hydrophobia usually refers to a material which repels water.
