Do you think you could add pronounciations, Spockylass? If not, we could always go to dictionary.com. XD <3

Booklover: Those phobias are great! I think I may just link to the site instead of putting them all up though, since every phobia is a long and interesting word and to add them all would be exhausting. xD

Jack: My goodness. xD That is a long word... I'll be adding your suggestions to the list!

Blaise: I think pronunciations might take too long to get up. xD But they should be easily accessible on Dictionary.com, as you said. =3
