OBS

aporofobia; aporafobia: La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que el sustantivo "aporofobia", no "aporafobia", está bien formado y se considera un término válido en español para hacer referencia al odio o al miedo al pobre. [...] La forma "aporafobia" tiene cierto uso, pero etimológicamente no se considera válida.

OBS

No confundir "aporofobia" con "peniafobia" que es la fobia a la pobreza.
