Talk:nightfright

RFV discussion: September–October 2019
To quote the discussion which caused me to bring this to RfV:

“  ''"Stage fright" certainly supports your point. But otherwise a "fright" is just a single instance, not a long-term phobia. I don't think "nightfright" or "snakefright" are words that normal human beings would use; they are probably restricted to weird Anglo-Saxonists. Equinox ◑ 02:47, 22 September 2019 (UTC)''


 * I agree with you when it comes to "snakefright". I can see nightfright, though, if only because of the rhyme. We might want to look more into that one. I'll open an RfV for it.

...So does this term have enough usage that is not "Anglish" so to speak? We need two more citations, either way. Tharthan (talk 03:56, 22 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Cited, and quite easily so. There appears to be a bird-specific usage, but I haven't separated it out (yet). Additionally, we may want to consider moving the main entry to, as most of the citations are of that spellage. I left a response at the discussion which caused me to bring this to RfV.
