What is the longest word in english?

السلام عليكم

Hello every1

i am VaSh ThE sTaMpEdE

this is my first thread in the English Forum

i have a question

What is the longest word in English?

i asked my teachers and he said " smiles " , and then he lauphed:31:

i think he said smiles because it is " s mile s "

because there is the word mile ( which is almost 2 and half Kilo meters)

in the middle of the word " smiles "

so i though that i should ask you guys

so

Hello guys^^...It's really bad luck for me>_< My teacher in the collage told me about the longest word in English...But unfourtintly I don't remeber it now but I think it's like the word that mister Wolf wrote it:)

Thanks Anyway for the subject^^

lol after seeing that word i give up ! if its true then i dont think there is a longer word
by the way your name vash would rank the 2nd longest word in english :P

EMMM,
antidisestablishmentarianism .. Quit right ^_^
thx Bad_D

emm let me the think ,, can we cast some grammatical add-ins on a longer word ?

BTW - for who asked - :
antidisestablishmentarianism means :

Against draging the goverment's acknowledgment of the church

( disestablishment : means with draging the goverment's acknowledgment of the church .. )


Thx all ^_^

Got it !
the longest word is :


aequeosalinocalcalinoceraceoaluminosocupreovitriolic


Believe it or not
quit right !
but it's too technical to use
so .. the longest now is


pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanokoniosis ( it is the supposed lung-disease )
42 letters

( you can find the longest words in Oxford dictonary only )

- if you want to make sure if the word is right or not
just copy it to microsoft word : )
the first is wrong ( quit a technical word )
the second is right !


the longest normal used word is :

floccinaucinihilipilification (29 letters)
( not scientific )

for more information :

it's funney to say that Bangkok ( the capital of thiland ) has the longest official place name that consists of 111 letters ( 6 words ) :


krungthephphramahanakhon bowonratanakosin mahintharayuthaya mahadilokphiphobnovpharad radchataniburirom udomsantisug!

Khalidksa:

hunter-zero:
if you saying that the VASH word is the longest word i don't agree with you:08: , but if you say VaSh ThE sTaMpEdE is longest word it is one of the longest words


Y a z e e d :
