  2. Lexicographer 1: Hey, we need a word for "the fear or dislike of the number 13."

    Lexicographer 2: How about "tridecaphobia"? The "trideca-" prefix is Latin for the number 13, like "penta-" for the number 5, "octa-" for 8, etc.

    Lexicographer 1: Great, that's perfec... Wait a sec... How many letters are in the word "tridecaphobia"?

    Lexicographer 2: <evil grin>

    Lexicographer 1: Nope! We're not doing this again! We learned our lesson with "lisp." OK, we're calling it "triskaidekaphobia" instead.

    Lexicographer 2: Boo, you're no fun at all.
