Slava,
It appears there is not a unanimous take on the word agoraphobia. I never trust German psychiatrists, or any others for that matter. The grand imposter Sickman Fraud lived in Austria, which is pretty close to being German.
You say potato, I say potata ..... etc. No hard feelings.

Re: Serry
In usages like "serry up" wouldn't "up" function like an adverb?
Re: "all the tea in China" would not tempt me in the slightest. On the other hand, i might feel adequately recompensed for most anything if you offered enough exotic coffees, such as Kona or Jamaica Blue Mountain.

Re: Serry
Serrated comes from Latin serra "saw". In Spanish the word became sierra, as in Sierra Madre "mother saw". In English it came to mean "a range of mountains with jagged peaks".
Also about up, see my Language Blog entry on that word.
