OMG OMG I ABSOLUTELY LOVE WORDS!!!!!!! I AM THE WORD FREAK OF MY SCHOOL I CARRY A DICTIONARY AND THESAURUS TO EVERY CLASS AND MY NICKNAMES ARE MISS WEBSTER 2006 AND DICTIONARY GIRL!!! I LOVE IT WHEN PEOPLE ASK ME THIS QUESTION!! It's hard to choose though!! I love them all so much! Okay, one of my favorites would have to be idiosyncratic, which means weird in one's own way, or strangely unique! My newest favorite is pneumonoultramicroscopicsilico-\nvolcanoconiosis, which is a supposed disease contracted from the overinhalation of silica dust. The disease does not really exsist, but that word is still my favorite, because it is the longest one I know! And, I can flawlessly spell it without looking! I have yet to find the longest word ever, though, but I can do it!

The Guinness Book of Records, in its 1992 and subsequent editions, declared the "longest real word" in the English language to be floccinaucinihilipilification at 29 letters. Defined as "the act of estimating (something) as worthless", its usage has been recorded as far back as 1741. In recent times its usage has been recorded in the proceedings of the United States Senate by Senator Jesse Helms, and at the White House by Bill Clinton's press secretary Mike McCurry, albeit sarcastically. It is the longest non-technical word in the first edition of the Oxford English Dictionary. The acceptability of the 33-letter adverbial form flocci­nauci­nihili­pilificastically is subject to controversy. The longest word in the Oxford English Dictionary is Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis, an invented word supposed to refer to a lung disease.

PNEUMONO­ULTRA­MICRO­SCOPIC­SILICO­VOLCANO­CONIOSIS (also spelled PNEUMONO­ULTRA­MICRO­SCOPIC­SILICO­VOLCANO­KONIOSIS) = a lung disease caused by breathing in particles of siliceous volcanic dust.\nThis is the longest word in any English dictionary. However, it was coined by Everett Smith, the President of The National Puzzlers' League, in 1935 purely for the purpose of inventing a new "longest word". The Oxford English Dictionary described the word as factitious. Nevertheless it also appears in the Webster's, Random House, and Chambers dictionaries.

elyas you are wrong!you are making it up\n\nDermatoglyphics, misconjugatedly, and uncopyrightable, each fifteen letters long, are the longest English words in which no letter appears more than once.

It is, in fact, Supercalifragilisticexpialidoc ious (space because it cuts me off otherwise).  That's what I thought, but I figured I'd better check...just in case.\n\nInterestingly, the longest common phrase is: ship-towed long-range acoustic detection system.\n\nI just discovered the other answer, and...wow.  I took this way, way too seriously.

That's not true. The official longest word is over 64,000 characters long. It is theoretical mature protein compound.

It is the longest non-technical word word in the English language and means the act of calling something worthless or making something worthless by those means.  I honestly did know this word exsisted because I gave it as an answer to a question on here "What is the longest word?"  I didn't get best answer because the asker chose 'antidisestablishmentarianism', probally because he thought my answer of "floccinaucinihilipilification" was just made up. I took Latin at university for two years so yes, I could pronounce this word.

It is pnumonoultramicroscopicsilico volcanoconiosis (45 letters), which first appeared in Oxford but is now in other major dictionaries. It describes a lung disease.\n\nThe longest non-technical word is flocci­nauci­nihili­pili­ficat ion (29 letters), meaning something worthless.\n\nAnother very common long word is antidisestablishmentarianism, which is only 28 letters.\n\nThere exist very long (1000 letter) scientific words that have never appeared in major English dictionaries, and only appear in some scientific dictionaries.\n\n\nNote: The spaces are there to keep Yahoo from putting in the "..." symbol, but in the real words they should not be.

Antidisestablishmentarianism, is generally believed to be the longest English word. Abraham Lincoln, or some other politician ,used it in a speech or something. How that'll help you with your laundry is a mystery to me, but there you go!
