A strong dislike, fear, or hatred of England, English culture, English language, or English-speaking peoples.
From Anglo- + -phobia (Greek 'phobos' meaning fear). The term emerged in the 19th century to describe anti-English sentiment, particularly during periods of international tension.
Anglophobia spiked historically during wars with Britain and the American Revolution—yet it remains oddly underused in modern discourse, suggesting we've normalized English cultural dominance so thoroughly we don't need a word for resisting it.
