Well I did a google search and found that the longest word listed in Oxford dictionaries is:
pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis (45 letters) It's meant to be some kind of lung disease, but theres something else about it. Quote:
Longest in the English Oxford Dictionary is: pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism (30 letters) |
I win the dutch one:
the official longest word is: KINDERCARNAVALSOPTOCHTVOORBEREIDINGSWERKZAAMHEDEN followed by: ZANDZEEPSODEMINERAALWATERSTEENSTRALEN and WAPENSTILSTANDSONDERHANDELINGEN (which actually means 'ceasefire negotiations') |
The longest danish word, that has officialy been used is:
speciall?gepraksisplanl?gningsstabilliseringsperio de (51 characters) :blink: It's tough to translate, I don't think that word exists in many languages! It means something like: "A period where a special doctor who practises are planing, erhh... something!!?" Well.. it is not easy to translate! :huh: :lol: Directly translated it is: "Special doctor pracsis planing stabalising period" ??, whatever that means exacly? <_< |

The longest proper word in English is:
pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis It is a lung condition that is contracted by breathing in particles of fine quartz dust, often caught by quatz miners. Some people say that the longest word in the english language is the name of a kind of bacteria but it is not a real word as it is just a list of all the proteins that go together to make it. |
The longest Italian world should be of 27 letter:
PARTICOLAREGGIATISSIMAMENTE which means, basiclally, very, VERY particularly. Or else PRECIPITEVOLISSIMEVOLMENTE which means "rushing very,very,very fast" |
Woah, alot of Dutch people here :blink:
Mouwvegerspraktijkkuisvrouwenonderneming might be pretty long too. |
