What is Sesquipedalophobia the fear of?

J, this is the short version.... hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia is the longer version.

What! How can someone be afraid of words.I never knew that!

From: sesquipedalian (a long word) + Latin '-phobia' (fear) sesquipedalian = 'sesquipedalis' (a foot and a half long) + -ian (noun suffix) 'sesquipedalis' = 'sesqui-' (and a half) + 'pedalis' (foot) 'sesqui-' = 'semi-' (half) + '-que' (and)
