Islamophobia is a made up word, which according to the online Oxford English Dictionary was first used in 1923; and is etymologically a combination of Islamo- and -phobia. However, anti-Semitism and anti-Semitic are both valid constructs using recognised words from the English dictionary. The Semites were a race of people. All of the uses of Semitic and Semitism can be found in the Oxford English Dictionary.
All words are made up words . Islamophobia is a valid construct of a recognised word - ISLAM . You can look up the definition of Islam in the dictionary. As such, it’s a recognised phrase along with terms such as anti-semetic (a phrase coined approx 80 years prior to Islamophobia) etc. it’s been in existence for over a 100 years - this qualifies it to be part of the English lexicon. “ The word Islamophobia is a neologism[28] formed from Islam and -phobia, a Greek suffix used in English to form "nouns with the sense 'fear of – – ', 'aversion to – – '."[29] According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the word means "Intense dislike or fear of Islam, esp. as a political force; hostility or prejudice towards Muslims". It is attested in English as early as 1923[30]to quote the French word islamophobie, found in a thesis published by Alain Quellien in 1910 to describe "a prejudice against Islam that is widespread among the peoples of Western and Christian civilization".[31]The expression did not immediately turn into the vocabulary of the English-speaking world though, which preferred the expression "feelings inimical to Islam", until its re-appearance in an article by Georges Chahati Anawati in 1976.[32] The term did not exist in the Muslim world,[a] and was later translated in the 1990s as ruhāb al-islām (رُهاب الإسلام) in Arabic, literally "phobia of Islam".[31]”
