pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis

antidisestablishmentaryanism

curses, so close

 

It's not the longest word since it was taken out of the dictionary several years ago. XD

But it is a word I remember learning.

 

i think my lungs ran away

*looks around*

 

Wow.

I ran out of breath trying to say it. I had to look it's syllables up as I was too lazy to try and decipher it myself. XD

You'd think they'd come up with a slightly less complex term. Like "valcaniosis".

Then again that's probably not even a possible word. xD

 

I prounounced it fluently.

 

*is out of breath* Thanks for the pronouciation, Sorax. =D

 

And it's 'coniosis', you wrote 'cany osis' in your break down. XD

 

Nice... I can say it fluently as it comes from greek words, but I hope I won't need to learn that in university XD
But unfortunately that's not the longest word. The longest word is 172 letter long if I counted right...

 

It's not that hard saying xD
And it's not even a real word if you saw what Soush(ro-ku-sa-su) wrote x3
But it is pretty funny (:

 

imagine asking a kid to spell pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis in a spelling bee. :p
