The word "phonetic" is not spelled phonetically.
(lemmy.world)
A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Those are all heterological words, just like "phonetic".
Autological (or homological) would be words like "pentasyllabic", "unhyphenated" and "writable.".
Does the word heterological describe itself?
Uffff, right in my autism.
Luckily the internet helps with that.

Tldr "does the set of all sets contain itself?"
Haha, I'm sorry. It was definitely a set-up.
This just makes me mad lol
That was the answer to the question.
God deleted it.
My favorite is 'Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia', which is the word for the condition of being phobic of long words. Feels like the doctor who named that one was a bit of a dick XD
Same, always fascinated me when I first learnt it
