hematofobia 24
Sust. FEM. 1. Morbid apprehension, intense embarrassment or disgust at the sight of blood. 2 Bias against bleeding: blood for healing purposes. The word, of Greek genealogy, comes from the genitive 'áimatos' case: blood, whose nominative is «áima»: blood ( the diphthong 'AI' becomes 'e' ). Added a 'h' prosthetics ( at the beginning of the word ) because in Greek it contains rugged spirit; (b) ) «fobía»: disgust, repulsion. Antonym: hematofilia of «fílos»: friend, i.e. who likes to see blood.
