Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis

"A lung disease caused by the inhalation of fine silica dust causing severe inflamation"

45 letters long and said to be the longest word in an English Language Dictionary, if you can find me one longer I'd love to know. I'm somewhat of a collector of useless information

I just like it cause of the look of terror people have on their faces when you say it or ask them to read it out
Lopadotemachoselachogaleokranioleipsanodrimhypotrimmatosilphioparaomelitokatakechymenokichlepikossyphophattoperisteralektryonoptekephalliokigklopeleiolagoiosiraiobaphetraganopterygon has 183 letters. It probably doesn't count, though. It's a fictional dish from Aristophanes' Assemblywomen.

Edit: Holy crap, it doesn't even fit the page!

'Tactical'. All sorts of good things begin with the word 'tactical', like 'tactical vest' or 'tactical air support' or 'tactical nuclear strike'.

I can technically go one better, if we use a particular chemical formulae, it is technically in english, though its easy to dispute its not actually a word.

It's 189,819 letters long.

To post it would most likely be spam so here is the link:

Don't know if anyone's said it yet, but mine is "facetious". Just say it aloud a few times. Pretty soon you'll be speaking Parseltongue.

Kumquat and llama. Both roll around in the mouth so incredibly well, smooth like silk. And kumquat has this jumpy, giddy feel to it. KuuuumQUAT! KuuuuuuuuumQUAT! Isn't it fun?

And llama of course. Llaaaaaaaamaaaaaaa llamallamallamallllllama. Oh I love it.
