Текст:The staycation
2009 was the year of the ‘staycation’ for many countries across the globe. This new word combines ‘stay’ and ‘vacation’, and has two meanings. The first describes a holiday spent in your own house, where you do things at and from your home. Using your home as a base you use local facilities such as the swimming pool or park and perhaps go for day trips. The second meaning refers to having a holiday in your home country, rather than going abroad. It is this second use which is the most common nowadays.

Herpetophobia is the irrational, unwarranted and persistent fear of reptiles. It is a highly common animal phobia. The word Herpetophobia originates from “Herp” meaning snake or reptile and “Phobos” which stands for the Greek God of Fear.
The fear of reptiles is often combined with Ophidiophobia which is specifically the fear of snakes, but they are both rather different and should not be confused with each other. Most individuals suffering from Herpetophobia are not just afraid of dangers posed by reptiles like snakes (mainly due to their venom), they are even afraid of harmless wall lizards (which generally do not pose any danger). Hepretophobia also means that the phobic is not just afraid of live reptiles; s/he may be even afraid of the thought of reptiles or might avoid watching them in the form of pictures, in movies, at the zoos etc.
