1. Antipathy towards learning: Toby loved to play football with his friends, and when it came to do his homework, he was a misomathy, hating to memorize facts and writing essays for school or even just reading books!
2. A hatred of mathematics or of learning the subject: Diane knew she was very poor at adding and subtracting and she abhorred having to go to the blackboard in front of the classroom and do calculations; so, she accepted the fact that she was a misomathy and decided to drop the class as soon as possible.
