Explanation

Arithmophobia comes from the Greek 'arithmos' meaning number. It's the irrational fear of numbers, calculations, or dealing with mathematics. This is distinct from astraphobia (fear of thunder/lightning) or apiphobia (fear of bees).

AI explanation

'Arithmophobia' combines 'arithmos' (Greek for 'number') with 'phobia', so it names the fear of numbers. The other listed fears (thunder/lightning, being single, bees) have entirely different names rooted in different Greek/Latin terms and aren't related to numbers.
