Some words I like, some I hate. Although it seems most words I hate, other people love and won't stop saying them.
And numbers often confuse me like crazy because of dyscalculia. With words it is sometimes all right to make mistakes. But with numbers you can't be off, even by a little. If you add up and subtract and multiply and add again in the same math problem, and then screw up because you forgot to move the decimal point, you're a hopeless failure and you've shame and humiliation upon yourself and your while family for decades to come.
At least, that's how it felt when I was trying to solve math in school.
