Hippophile: Lover of Horses
Pluviophile: lover of Rain, person who enjoy rainy very much
Lexophile: Is a lover of words, especially in word games, puzzles, anagrams, palindromes, etc. Typically, a lexophile derives pleasure from using various words in his communication; he/she appreciates the shade, pronunciation surrounding different words. A lexophile is alert to synonyms, antonyms, homophones, and homonyms (two or more words having same spelling but different meaning) often using them for smart effect, sometimes in humour. Lexophiles are fast with learning new diction; they are witty with words and are great communicators.
Autophile: is one who loves himself/herself. An autophile is overly self-involved, and often useless and selfish. Autophile has been repurposed for car enthusiasts too. The word is used for car freaks. The car freaks are too much in love with their vehicle. They go beyond the normalcy: they will wash, clean, paint their vehicle…… they can go beyond the maintenance of their car. They keep spending on their cars buying new spares, adding extra gadgets, in short, they over do for their cars.
Astrophile: Is a person who loves solitude, being alone. These people love their own company. They don’t crave for company of others. They are independent, they are enigmatic, and they are free people. They don’t like to get bogged down by others. They are happy being alone; they enjoy experiencing new places and making new friends around the world. They enjoy doing things by themselves. It’s fun to hear them talk about their lives, and their philosophies. They bring different things, different ideas to table.
Bibliophile: The word “bibliophile” exactly means a lover of books (biblio). The term is often used to refer to people who simply like to read. They go on collecting books; they spend generously on purchasing books. But, the most precise interpretation of “bibliophile” is someone who loves books particularly for its shape, size, colour of the cover, font of the book etc. etc. They like to feel the book. I know of people who cover their books, index them, make a library of their books and don’t like to share them with others. Of course, most bibliophiles are great readers; they collect books because they love the narratives in them. For them books are like big investments and valuables.
Ceraunophile: Is a person who loves thunder and lightning. There people who love to dance outside in open during thunderstorms. They love them because they feel that there is nothing in the world that can equal the power of a thunderstorm. It’s an awe factor for them. They love to take pictures of lightning strikes. Ceraunophiles find majesty, power, and beauty in thunderstorms. They find something exhilarating about the rumbling thunder, powerful lightning, and the cleansing effect of heavy rain.
Chionophile: Is a person who loves cold weather and the snow fall. People have a love-hate relationship with chilled cold weather. Chinophiles like when the first snowfall hits, and the surrounding becomes snowy. They love gaping at the sky in wonder; they feel obsessed by the Earth’s ability to turn water into these icy sprinkles. They enjoy the blast of cold air when they open their doors and windows. They love to fill their lungs with the cold fresh air. They enjoy the tranquillity of walking along a quiet, frozen beach.
Clinophile: Is a lover of just sleeping in bed or reclining. Nothing interests a clinophile more than just sleeping in bed. They sleep because they feel that sleep will take all of those problems away from them. They don’t get bored with sleeping. They not only sleep in their bed, they sleep and have nap anywhere. They love their pajamas and blankets more than anything. No matter what has happened during the day, good or bad, stressful or not, sleeping always makes them feel better. They believe that more sleep is always better than less sleep. In short, sleeping is their hobby. Call it beauty sleep, nap, snoozing, slumber, siesta, whatever you want, sleep is clinophile’s one and only true love. It just makes everything right for them.
